Dear All,
I would like to check out some dates and names on the following issues:
1- The first mathematician/s who wrote on the "fourth-dimension" concept?
2- The first mathematician/s who wrote on "best-approximations to
irrational numbers by means or rational numbers"?
I already got some info on this matter, however I think this is the best
place to check those dates and names out.
Many thanks in advance for any help on this matter.
Best regards (especialmente a Julio Gonzalez Cabillon por el enorme y tan
noble esfuerzo de mantener una lista tan util. La Historia Matematica es
la herramienta mas util para la comprension y ensen~anza de las matematicas,
sus metodos y conceptos)
