Literary works

  • Versuch einer Geschichte der Mathematik and Arithmetik (), 1739
  • Historia matheseos universae a mundo condito ad seculum post Chr. Nat. XVI (or Historia matheseos universae; ), 1742

gollark: ```c#include <stdio.h>typedef union { float apio; int apiobee; char apioform[22];} ApioData;int main() { ApioData data; data.apio = 3.0; printf("%d", data.apiobee);}```
gollark: Wondrous. Such safety.
gollark: ```c#include <stdio.h>union ApioData { float apio; int apiobee; char apioform[22];} ;int main() { union ApioData data; data.apio = 3.0; printf("%d", data.apiobee);}```
gollark: Fine. I will hackerize the TIORUN™ servers?
