Muslims and Science

We can't think of modern technology without Computer Science, such as computers, cell phones, and iPods. Computer Science is based on algorithm. Algorithm was invented by a Muslim Mathematician by the name of Al-Khwarizmi. You wouldn't have computers, cell phones, and iPods if Al-Khwarizmi didn't invent algorithm. Why didn't Al-Khwarizmi get Nobel Prize for inventing algorithm? He didn't get Nobel Prize because he was neither an European nor a Jew.
