... There is some work which has to be done here. The definition of addition, for example, appears to depend on which choice of pair [a, b] we chose to represent a given integer. So we have to show that, if the equations b + x = a and b0 + x = a0 are equivalent (that is, if a + b0 = a0 + b), and if also ...

It was soon realized that these formulas, even if one was only interested in real solutions, sometimes required the manipulation of sq ...
