Irrational Numbers And Their Representation By Sequences And Series (1906) - Henry Parker Manning - Bog

""Irrational Numbers And Their Representation By Sequences And Series"" is a mathematical book written by Henry Parker Manning and published in 1906. The book explores the concept of irrational numbers, which are numbers that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers, and their representation through sequences and series. Manning delves into the history of irrational numbers, including the discovery of the square root of 2 by the ancient Greeks, and the development of continued fractions as a method for approximating irrational numbers. The book also covers topics such as the convergence of series, the properties of irrational numbers, and the use of irrational numbers in geometry. ""Irrational Numbers And Their Representation By Sequences And Series"" is a valuable resource for mathematicians and students of mathematics interested in the theory and applications of irrational numbers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
