Tusi´s method

I´m removing the sentence that says Tusi developed an "early Cardan method". This claim is highly misleading, and it doesn´t matter if the source (a non exceptionally neutral one) says exactly that, if you do some research you´ll realise Tusi´s method was geometrical, unlike Cardano´s that was strictly algebraic. You can check thi source:

  • Annals of science, Volume 46,page 197,British Society for the History of Science
