Part 1 begins with elementary mathematics of determinate quantities and includes four sections on simple calculations , and then progresses to compound calculations , ratios and proportions and algebraic equations. Part 2 consists of 15 chapters on analyses of indeterminate quantities. Here, Euler shows the reader several ways to solve polynomial equations up to the fourth degree. This landmark book showed students the beauty of mathematics, and more significantly, how to do it.
