A while ago, I chanced upon a light mathematical essay that made the case that algebraics were the next 'logical' step after irrational numbers. As I remember it, it built up steadily from natural numbers to rational to irrational to algebraics using equations. Sadly I lost the link. If anyone remembers reading something like this and has a link, I would appreciate it very much. Thanks! ps. This was a mathematician(?)'s personal site. There were others essays on Maths too. |
