Aitken (Alexander Aitken)

Alexander Aitken was a mathematician from Scotland known for his work in analysis and logic. He contributed to the understanding of infinite series, number theory, and the foundations of mathematics. Aitken developed methods for accelerating the convergence of numerical series, making calculations more efficient, and contributed to the development of mathematical logic and the study of real numbers. His work helped deepen our understanding of the structure of mathematics and improved computational techniques used in scientific calculations.
