This book introduces a simple set of rules for carrying out arithmetic operations on approximate quantities in a way that shows at once the accuracy of the results. While ordinary rules of arithmetic can give very long, tedious, and error prone calculations involving such quantities, the author presents a clear, concise, and practical method to avoid these issues. The techniques in this book can be applied to any computation involving approximate quantities, making it invaluable to those working in fields where precise measurement is impossible, such as astronomy, engineering, and chemistry. The author also includes multiple solved examples to help the reader apply the rules to a variety of problems.
