Sinossi
Excerpt from Tables and Formulę for the Computation of Life Contingencies; With Copious Examples of Annuity, Assurance, and Friendly Society Calculations: Second Issue, With an Addendum, Comprising a Large Extension of the Principal Table
Chapter VII. Is occupied with the subject of Commutation Tables. The leading properties of these tables are laid down, and methods for their formation, for both single and joint lives,1' are explained and exemplified, which it is believed will be found more certain and efficient than any heretofore proposed. The Postscript contains two additional methods, which suggested themselves since the chapter was completed.
Chapter VIII. Contains some details in reference to the history of the Commutation Method of computation; and an attempt is made to vindicate Mr. Barrett's claim to the invention of that method, of which it has been recently sought to deprive him.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive exploration of the use of tables of logarithms and antilogarithms in practical computations, especially in the fields of compound interest, annuities, and life contingencies. In a historical context, the book builds on the initial discovery of logarithms by the Scottish mathematician John Napier in the 16th century and provides a structured approach to their use. The author presents the concepts of interpolation and the use of auxiliary series to facilitate the computation of annuities, life contingencies, and more. This book is a valuable resource for actuaries, statisticians, and other professionals who require a thorough understanding of the principles and applications of logarithms and antilogarithms in their work. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
