Excerpt from Intellectual Algebra; Or Oral Exercises in Algebra: For Common Schools Nor will an algebraic process of reasoning, however long, seem at all difficult for the memory, where the numbers are small, when it is recollected that you have to stand on but one round of a ladder to reach the next higher round; and that this process, continued, easily carries you to the top. The last step requires no greater effort than the first. So in an algebraic solution, where only one symbol is used to express the conditions of a question, one step only need be held in mind to reach the next, and it need be held only till the next is reached. Each successive step is de pendent on the preceding, and is derived from it by a process of reasoning generally limited to that step. Even in using several symbols, the mind is easily trained to discriminate and retain whatever is needed as an argu ment in the solution, and to lay aside at once all the steps of the process by which that conclusion was reached.
