Descrizione del libro

George Boole, the father of Boolean algebra, published A Treatise on the Calculus of Finite Differences in 1860. It was an instant classic, and later became the basis for our contemporary digital computer systems. The book explains finite calculus, explores various problem-solving equations, and provides exercises for students.
