Excerpt from Solutions of the Cambridge Senate-House Problems and Riders for the Year 1878 The present volume contains the solutions of the problems and riders set in the Mathematical Tripos Examination for 1878, in several cases where it was thought that useful information could be given, additional remarks on the subject of a question have been added. For example, pp. 162-169 may he regarded as a brief general statement of the method of least squares. Although the Moderators and Examiners are collectively responsible for the questions set in the examination, the solutions here given are due to the proposers of the questions individually and have not been submitted to the other examiners, so that each author is alone responsible for the solutions to which his name is attached. I may also state that although my name appears on the title-page as editor, my duties have been confined to the arrangement of the solutions and their passage through the press, &c., : I have not in any way altered the solutions as written or attempted to secure uniformity even in matters of notation. It may be convenient to state that the examination occupies nine days, the first four days being separated from the last five days by an interval of ten days. The examination began on Monday, December 31, 1877, and ended on Friday, January 18, 1878. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
