"One of the most conspicuous and distinctive features of mathematical thought in the nineteenth century is its critical spirit. Beginning with the calculus, it soon permeates all analysis, and toward the close of the century it overhauls and recasts the foundations of geometry and aspires to further conquests in mechanics and in the immense domains of mathematical physics." – James Pierpont (1866–1938)

"L'un des traits les plus marquants et les plus distinctifs de la pensée mathématique du dix-neuvième siècle est son esprit critique. Commencé avec le calcul infinitésimal, il imprègne bientôt toute l'analyse et, vers la fin du siècle, il révise et refond les fondements de la géométrie, et aspire à d'autres conquêtes en mécanique et dans les immenses domaines de la physique mathématique." – James Pierpont (1866–1938)

Decomposition into weight × level + jump - 3D graphs - 2D graphs - First 500 terms - Rémi Eismann

Decomposition into weight × level + jump with 3D graphs (WebGL three.js), 2D graphs and first 500 terms. This decomposition is an extension of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic and a new way to see the numbers. 1000 sequences decomposed (natural numbers, prime numbers, triangular numbers, composites...). Rémi Eismann
