The paper aims to reveal new viewpoint on the problem of Non-Eucledian geometry.
Considering this problem I faced with the fact that a statement in a computer language is like a sentence in a written language.
The idea that the telephone is now the gateway to the fax machine and the Internet for millions and the tool that connects friends and family conveniently and economically, no matter where in the world they may be. is recognised by many specialists.
It is not argued that the man, who deserves the honour for the creation of Non-Eucledian geometry, is N Lobachevsky.
N. Lobachevsky encountered with the problem of building a new geometry on the basis of a parallel axiom contradicting Euclid`.
Although research in this field was launched 20 years ago, the main achievements have been scored but recently.
In remote places in India and Africa, the use of solar cells is now making it possible to introduce phones without a large-scale electrical distribution system.
The authors point out that high-reliability vacuum-tube circuits and coaxial cable vastly improved the transmission quality in an undersea cable that linked North America and Europe.
