Excerpt from On the Use of Equivalent Numbers in the Method of Least SquaresIt is scarcely necessary to remark, that the subject _is plainly one which is in its nature somewhat vague and insusceptible of rigorous treatment, though it is at the same time interesting from its practical bearings. If no very precise or definite rules for regulating the degree of numerical exactness suited to the discussion of any given problem can be arrived at, i...
