[edit] Anonymous comment from article
69.137.86.242 (talk • contribs) added the following to the article today, without context or explanation:
- According to the referenced article "On the Teeth of Wheels" by Brian Hayes in the Sigma Xi journal American Scientist, the proper first name of Stern was Moritz, not Moriz. Moritz Abraham Stern succeeded Gauss as Ordinary Professor of Mathematics.
I'm moving it here to the talk page, in case someone else wants to follow it up. --Piet Delport 02:38, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Appearance of Farey sequences
"an in-order traversal of the first k levels yields the Farey sequence Fk." I don't see that. Looks to me like there is a level which contains 2/5 and 3/5 but not 1/5 or 4/5. Also, for esthetic reasons, I would avoid the barbarous vernacular of the computer programmers: "in-order traversal" :)
