Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Primer of the Calculus, Vol. 5

The theory is much better approached after the student's confidence in the prae tical outcome of the thing has been fully established by actual work. Indeed in this way, he is liable to pick up a good deal of the doctrine as he goes along, and the knowledge of it that he thus acquires will guide him to what he still lacks. The recognized need will point to the best line of investigation.

Excerpt from A Primer of the Calculus, Vol. 5

This work is a development of the infinitesimal calculus as far as the first differentials of algebraic functions of one independent variable and their corresponding integrals. That is to say, it is restricted to the absolute rudiments of the science. Within these narrow limits however, the treatment is tolerably full, and suffices to show bow far-reaching a mathematical instrument the Calculus is, even in its elementary steps.

This seems to the author to be the best way of communicating a working knowledge of the science; namely, to teach a few elementary rules and then put them into immediate use, as far as they will go. The student then recognizes the necessity of the more advanced steps.

Very little is said at the start about the logical basis of the science. The few remarks which it seemed necessary to make upon this topic are reserved for the final chapter.
