peer agreement (net): +1Rows and limits Explanation: e.g.: "Decimal and decimal-free error-control perspectives of continuity, limits and Cauchy sequences are given below. These perspectives is followed by comments on math education." "numbers in each line are what are now called figurate numbers. Those in the first line are called numbers of the first order; those in the second line, natural numbers or numbers of the second order; those in the third line, numbers of the third order, and so on. It is easily shown that the mth number in the nth row is (m+n-2)! / (m-1)!(n-1)! " HTH, Serge L. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-01-11 01:48:16 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Taking my first example into account, I think it\'s better to say sequences and limits...
