Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Fundamental Theorems of the Differential Calculus

The theory of those functions that correspond to the differential coefficient at a point at which this latter does not exist, does not fall naturally within our scope. Some of the remarkable properties of these interesting functions, with other generalities, are, however, stated without proof in Appendix I.

The theory of Maxima and Minima has been barely alluded to, and the complex variable has been rigorously excluded. Apart from other considerations the space at our disposal has here been decisive. For the same reason it has been impossible to give more than a few isolated examples. Appendix II consists of references to some of the existing literature, where such examples may be found.

It is perhaps well to warn the English reader in conclusion that such initial difficulties as he may feel are likely to be due, in part at least, to a lack of familiarity with the modern formulation of the concept of an irrational number.
