Bedtime Story 


Note G of Ada Lovelace - 6


We are continuing tonight with Note G of Ada Lovelace.

“If that distance be = d, then            

  

It is with the independent formula (8.) that we have to do.
        
Therefore it must be remembered that the conditions for the value of n are now modified, and that n is a perfectly arbitrary whole number.

This circumstance, combined with the fact (which we may easily perceive) that whatever n is, every term of (8.) after the (n+1)th is = 0, and that the (n+1)th term itself is always =\BB{2n-1}\cdot\frac{1}{1}=\BB{2n-1}, enables us to find the value (either numerical or algebraical) of any nth Number of Bernoulli B2n+1, in terms of all the preceding ones, if we but know the values of B1, B3…B2n-3  .    

We append to this Note a Diagram and a Table, containing the details of the computation for B7 (B1, B3, B5 being supposed given).

Clip from diagram of computation of the Numbers of Bernoulli
The diagram of the computation of the Numbers of Bernoulli is very large and intricate, and cannot be displayed as an in-line image in this document. If reduced to fit on a typical computer screen, the text in the diagram is illegible. The diagram is available at two different resolutions; the following links will display the version you select in a separate browser window (assuming your browser provides this feature), which will permit you to refer to the diagram, scrolling as necessary, while reading the following text. If you have a PostScript printer, you can download a ready-to-printPostScript file (in a ZIPped archive), which prints the diagram on a single page of paper.

Another great educator and a teacher that I am aware of is Professor Subhashish Chattopadhyay in Bangalore, India.

While I narrate stories, Professor Subhashish an electronic engineer and a former professor at BARC, does and teaches real mathematics and physics.

He started the participation of Indian students at the International Physics Olympiad.

Do visit him here:


All his books can be downloaded for free through this link:
