SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the translation of Tadeusz Wazewski's proof of de l'Hospital's theorem from French to English. A user offers to translate the proof, which is only a few pages long, and expresses challenges with typesetting due to complex notation. The user successfully completes typesetting, proofreading, and formatting the document, providing a link to the PDF and a .tex file for further use. The collaborative effort highlights the community's support for users seeking mathematical resources.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of de l'Hospital's theorem
  • Familiarity with LaTeX typesetting
  • Basic knowledge of mathematical notation
  • Ability to translate mathematical texts
NEXT STEPS
  • Research LaTeX typesetting techniques for mathematical documents
  • Explore English translations of mathematical theorems
  • Study the historical context and applications of de l'Hospital's theorem
  • Learn about common challenges in translating mathematical terminology
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, students of calculus, translators of mathematical texts, and anyone interested in the nuances of typesetting complex mathematical proofs.

I was wondering if you know if there is an English version of Tadeusz Wazewski's proof of de l'Hospital's theorem which is available here in French : Biblioteka Wirtualna Nauki

But (unfortunately) I don't speak French.

I can't find a translation online. That said, it's only a few pages long. I should be able to translate it for you, if you're interested. Just let me know and give me a few hours.
 
If you would be so kind. I would really appreciate it :)

Thank you a lot :)
 
Halfway through... I wish the .tex was available, it would make translating a breeze. Typesetting the entire thing up is incredibly error-prone, especially with the tedious notation used. By the way, some terms used in the paper seem to have no english equivalent - I translated them best I can but I can't guarantee accuracy.

EDIT: typesetting complete - proofreading now.
EDIT: proofreading complete - formatting now.
EDIT: formatting complete.

Here you go. Apparently I can't upload a PDF larger than 97.7KB on the forum, so find attached the .tex file, and the link to the PDF file below:

Let's hope it's readable and I didn't mess up too much, I am unfamiliar with the notation.

I wish to commend your efforts, Bacterius, for going the extra mile for one of our new users! :cool:

Good work! (Yes)
 
Thank you very much :)
