 Are only integers ever 'based'?


 ---------------

 When I read this: 'the constructor function for integers' I
 immediately thought we were constructing the set of integers but it
 turned out to be only a far minor construction project, so should it
 not say: 'the constructor function for an integer' ?

 ---------------

 Is this correct?: <exponentiale/> to grab the Francophone
 audience:-)?  It just looks so much like a typo!

 <nlogbase/> would be more meaningful.

 <pi/> would be better as <ratiopi/>, to distinguish it from other uses of
 \pi.

 Please likewise keep the euler on gamma as there are other things called
 gamma.
 Why does this get a series expansion but \pi does not?

 (No, I don't know what to call 'i' either.)

 And what is NaN doing in numbers:-)?  More pertinently, surely it is
 not a K-12 concept?
