page no 374 note * There is (pp. 1-5) a short account of the system of real numbers as defined by (Cantor’s) ‘sequences’. I hope to give, in the near future, a brief discussion of what one can mean by the phrase ‘definition of a number by a sequence’ in this Gazette ( cf.Russell, , The Principles of Mathematics, vol. i., 1903, pp. 270286 Google Scholar).
