Diskussion:Frances Pellos

Weitere Informationen

Die folgenden zwei Bücher habe ich mir nicht angeschaut, evtl. bieten sie noch mehr zu Pellos:

• David Eugene Smith (1860-1944), History of Mathematics, vol. I, New York, Dover Publications, Inc., 1958
• David Eugene Smith (1860-1944), History of Mathematics, vol. II, Boston, Ginn and Company, 1925

hier die Quelle für diese Vermutung

• http://mail.mcjh.kl.edu.tw/~chenkwn/mathword/d.html - zur Herkunft der Begriffs "Dezimal" (Zitat: DECIMAL is derived from the Latin decimus, meaning "tenth." According to Smith (vol. 2, page 14), in the early printed books numbers which are multiples of 10 were occasionally called decimal numbers, citing Pellos (1492, fol. 4), who speaks of "numbre simple," "nubre desenal," and "nubre plus que desenal" and Ortega (1512, 1515 ed., fols. 4, 5), who has "lo numero simplice," "lo numero decenale," and "lo numero composto.")
