Excerpt from Standard Arithmetic: Embracing a Complete Course for Schools and Academies IN the preparation of this work the author has aimed to secure two results namely, skill in numerical computations, and a preper understanding of the reasons for the steps in the explanation of processes and the solution of problems. Skill in computing may be acquired Without any intelligent apprehension of arithmetical science, and a profound insight into the truths and principles of arithmetic may be attained Without much facility in using numbers. Very many people Will prefer to have the student trained to be rapid and accurate in computations, and they will esteem a rapid accountant more competent in mathematics than the learned astronomers of our time While others Will prefer that training Which cultivates the reasoning powers, even at the expense of practical expertness in the use of numbers. The author has endeavored to secure both these ends by embodying in the book a large number of examples upon Which the pupil may be trained to accuracy and rapidity, While at the same time he has not failed to incorporate in it a large number of problems that are designed to train the analytical powers and to develop the reasoning faculties.
