Talk:Edward Reingold

Binary logarithm
Knuth's credit to Reingold for the lg notation for binary logarithms is a mistake. (I have somewhere in my office a check from Knuth for this correction.) See citations in binary logarithm for the same notation used by Ernesto Trucco in 1956 and John N. Mitchell in 1962. So although it was removed for being unsourced, and can be sourced, I think it should not be stated as true here. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:58, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
