Synopsis
Excerpt from Logarithmic and Trigonometric Tables: Five-Place and Four-Place
I have, therefore, out of an experience as a computer and worker in applied mathematics, as well as a teacher, eliminated from this treatise all proposi tions that are not of practical value or needed in the demonstration of such propositions. This exclusion leaves out about one-half of the matter usually included in our text-books on geometry. However, instructors will not eu titely miss those familiar and interesting theorems which helped to swell the books they studied, - such theorems as fall below the practical standard as here given as exercises or as corollaries.
I have sought to use symbols and equations only in those cases where I could see no gain in spelling out their meaning.
The practical teacher may rest assured that in this treatise there are no breaks in the continuity of reasoning, nor need be fear that there is any lack of training in demonstrative processes.
Fitting schools will naturally be solicitous to know if the class using such a text would be prepared to pass such college entrance examinations as may be tried. Of course it is impossible to predict the questions that may be asked in future; but an actual test has been made of all available college entrance examination papers and only one theorem was discovered that has been omitted from the present work, and that one might be called an original' since none of the three texts recommended by this particular University contained that theorem.
