Eighteenth-century course of analysis, of a very readable writing.

Definitions, theorems, corollaries are numbered. Our volume starting at number 206, there was certainly written a first volume.
Our volume deals with the problems of the first degree with an unknown, the extraction of the roots, the substitution, with many problems and their solutions. Then are treated problems of two unknowns and first degree, the solidity of the sphere.

First edition.
Dupin is known for it's theorem and for the cyclides of Dupin.
Today, Dupin cylides are used in computer-aided design (CAD), because cyclide patches have rational representations and are suitable for blending canal surfaces (cylinder, cones, tori, and others).
It's in this work that Dupin use for the first time the word "Cyclid" and give the demonstration of their existance and their main properties.
