Hace 2 días · John Napier (1550-1617) inventó los logaritmos, que facilitaron enormemente los cálculos trigonométricos, especialmente en astronomía y navegación. Consolidación de la Trigonometría Moderna Descartes y la Geometría Analítica. René Descartes (1596-1650) revolucionó la matemática con la introducción de la geometría analítica.
Hace 3 días · Logarithms were introduced by John Napier in 1614 as a means of simplifying calculations. They were rapidly adopted by navigators, scientists, engineers, surveyors, and others to perform high-accuracy computations more easily. Using logarithm tables, tedious multi-digit multiplication steps can be replaced by table look-ups and ...
1 de jun. de 2024 · El concepto de logaritmos lo introdujo John Napier en el siglo XVI con el fin de simplificar los cálculos en astronomía y navegación. El logaritmo inverso, o antilogaritmo, surgió de forma natural cuando los matemáticos y los científicos buscaban revertir estos procesos para diversas aplicaciones.
22 de may. de 2024 · Logarithms were first introduced by John Napier (1550-1617), but it is interesting to note that Napier did not give the simplest and most common form of the function. This development was due to Henry Briggs (1561-1630), who was the first Gresham Professor of Geometry and who described the logarithm in the modern form in which it is ...
24 de may. de 2024 · The Napier logarithm was the first to be published in 1614. Henry Briggs introduced a common (base 10) logarithm. John Napier's purpose was to assist in the multiplication of quantities that were called sines.
Hace 5 días · Scottish mathematician John Napier (1550-1617) discovered e as he was developing natural logarithms (as opposed to “common” base 10 logarithms). Incidentally, Napier also liked to work with decimals rather than fractions, and he made common us of the decimal point.
Hace 6 días · In the new book John Napier: Life, Logarithms, and Legacy , Julian Havil does a marvelous job of bringing Napier back into the spotlight. ---Stephanie Blanda, American Mathematical Society, This book fills a clear gap in published work on Napier and is likely to be the standard point of departure for those interested in his life and work for ...
