First Course in the Theory of Equations
by Leonard E. Dickson
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons 1922
ISBN/ASIN: B002KKB50M
Number of pages: 207
Description:
The theory of equations is not only a necessity in the subsequent mathematical courses and their applications, but furnishes an illuminating sequel to geometry, algebra and analytic geometry. Moreover, it develops anew and in greater detail various fundamental ideas of calculus for the simple, but important, case of polynomials. The theory of equations therefore affords a useful supplement to differential calculus whether taken subsequently or simultaneously.
