Abstract

top
The notion of the number line was formed in 20th century. We consider the generation of this concept in works by M. Stifel (1544), Galileo (1633), Euler (1748), Lambert (1766), Bolzano (1830-1834), M´eray (1869–1872), Cantor (1872), Dedekind (1872), Heine (1872) and Weierstrass (1861-1885).
