A Treatise on the Integral Calculus and Its Applications: With Numerous Examples

by Isaac Todhunter

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Integral Calculus and Its With Numerous Examples The Calculus of Variations seems to claim a place in the present treatise with the same propriety as the ordinary theory of maxima and minima values is included in the Differential Calculus. Accordingly a chapter of the treatise is devoted to this subject; and it is hoped that the theory and illustrations there given will be found, with respect to simplicity and comprehensiveness, adapted to the wants of students.
