Excerpt from A Treatise on Reinforced ConcreteThe primary conventions of the ordinary mathematical notation were established before Caxton introduced the printing press which bears his name.SO long as equations were printed from loose type set up by hand from many different founts it was generally possible to imitate, more or less closely, the forms given in the manuscript original.The setting up, of mathematical equations was, however, always regarded as special and difficult work for the com positor and the general introduction of type-setting machines, such as the Linotype and Monotype, has made these difficulties more generally apparent.Sometimes the ordinary context is set up by machines, and the interposed equations are set up by hand in small separate metal frames or sticks.In some instances the context may be set up by machines in London, and the equations may be set up by hand by a compositor in Cambridge or elsewhere.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
