| Aug 19, 2021 at 23:29 | comment | added | Joe Silverman | @Tomita I appreciate the kudos, but if you ever refer to it in an article or such, you should not call it "Silverman's method." It's a standard and well-known technique that I'm sure was known in the 19th century, if not earlier. I have no idea who first came up with the idea. | |
