Overview

Excerpt from Second-Year Mathematics for Secondary Schools The authors are convinced that a topical treatment Of the theory of limits does not belong to the early years of a high school course, and in this they are in harmony with the writers of some of the best among recent French and German second ary texts. What has been attempted here is to pave the way toward a later thorough understanding of this important sub jcet, rather than to induce the pupil to think he has mastered the subject by the memorizing Of a theorem. The question Of the existence of incommensurable lines and numbers is raised; examples of these are given; their approximations by means to continued fractions as well as' by decimal fractions are studied.
