Abstract
1. The elements of which every distinct analytical process is composed are three, namely, first the Subject , that is, the symbol on which a certain notified operation is to be performed; secondly, the Operation itself, represented by its own symbol; thirdly, the Result , which may be connected with the former two by the algebraic sign of equality. Thus let a be the subject representing, we may suppose, some quantity, b the symbol for multiplication by b , and c the result or product; for greater distinctness let the subject be inclosed in square brackets, the analytical process in this case is [ a ] b = c .
