I can't stand it any longer! Would someone please enlighten me, what is a SURD?

(Yeah I know, I'm probably gonna feel dumb for not figuring it out myself)

bump, just too see 3 threads of mine in the top.

IIRC, a surd is an inexact nth root of an integer, expressed in its simplest form with the root on the top line. Therefore <font face=Symbol>Ö2<font face=Arial> is a surd. 1/<font face=Symbol>Ö2<font face=Arial> is not, but the equivalent <font face=Symbol>Ö2/2<font face=Arial> is.

Hope the formatting works - is there an easier way to do that?

Murgatroyd - I take it you mean
<font face=Symbol>Ö2=10 (<font face=Arial>base <font face=Symbol>Ö2)<font face=Arial>


Edit: definition correction and formatting adjustment

Edit: further reformatting. Has it worked?

Edit: Close, just a little bit too much Greek. Should be fine now.

I hate to be boring, but when I went to school a base had to be an integer - someone gone changed the rules??
