Francis Guthrie noticed as few as four colors sufficed while coloring a county map of England, and hypothesized that this should be true of all maps in a 2D plane. After consulting Augustus de Morgan, Guthrie's Problem was sent forward to mathematicians hoping for a sufficient proof. The four color problem can be explained here. Link text

Haken & Appel's algorithm for the four-color theorem is proven with 1800 iterations and 1000 hours of computing on an IBM 370-168 to print a 400-page detailed proof. Denial of this computer-generated proof sparked debate over technology's place in mathematics. The programming algorithm is taught in many computer science classes today. Link text
