The Place of Nicolas Chuquet in the History of Mathematics,t against its most significant precursor, Fibonacci’s ., and against the most influential exposition of his day, Pacioli’s .. The comparison between Chuquet and Pacioli has already been explored by Cantor (1892) and by Juschkewitsch (1961), but these authors had access only to the material published
