The discussion revolves around a potential typo in the Spanish sixth edition of "Calculus" by Robert A. Adams, where the properties of the exponential function are labeled as "TEOREMA 2," despite another theorem with the same label appearing just before it for natural logarithm properties. The contributor clarifies that in the seventh edition in English, this is correctly labeled as Theorem 3, confirming that it is indeed a typographical error in the sixth edition.

Hi, PF

I've got the spanish sixth edition of "Calculus", by Robert A. Adams. When it comes to introduce the exponential function properties, calls it "TEOREMA 2", but could it be a typo?. Just a page before, there is another TEOREMA 2: Natural logarithm properties.

Sorry for posting so quickly and badly: I've had access to the 7th edition in English: it's the Theorem 3; it's a typo:

Many years ago, as the internet was coming of age, I burned over 500 pounds of technical manuals. I realized I can look things up on the internet faster than I can find something in a technical manual. And just about anything I might need could be found online. But letting go of my several shelves worth of college text and other science books is another matter. I can't bring myself to get rid of them but there is very little if anything I can't find online now. Books are heavy and a pain...
