Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Francis Bacon said
mathematics Doing mathematics: proof, conjecture, and what mathematicians want that other fields do not.
So as it is almost necessary in all controversies and disputations to imitate the wisdom of the mathematicians, in setting down in the very beginning the definitions of our words and terms, that others may know how we accept and understand them, and whether they concur with us or no.
