Development was generally confined to the hills and to the port area of Ahuriri. In the early years, Napier covered almost exclusively an oblong group of hills (the Scinde Island) which was nearly entirely surrounded by the ocean, but from which ran out two single spits, one to the north and one to the south. There was a swamp between the now Hastings Street and Wellesley Road, and the sea extended to Clive Square.

Among Napier's early followers were the instrument makers Edmund Gunter and John Speidell. [27] [28] [29] The development of logarithms is given credit as the largest single factor in the general adoption of decimal arithmetic. [30] The Trissotetras (1645) of Thomas Urquhart builds on Napier's work, in trigonometry. [31] Clouse, Robert G. (April 1974). "John Napier and Apocalyptic Thought".

Napier's father-in-law, Sir James Chisholm of Cromlix, was one of many excommunicated by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian party following the Spanish blanks plot. Napier sat on the General Assembly that excommunicated the plotters, and petitioned the King James VI and I to enforce the punishment on the plotters, but was ultimately ignored since the King believed the ministers were acting cruelly, and was in favor of pursuing policies of more appeasement.

For those interested the original version reads:- On 3 February 1931, most of Napier and nearby Hastings were levelled by an earthquake. The collapse of buildings and the ensuing fires killed 256 people. Some 4000 hectares of today's Napier were undersea before the earthquake raised it above sea level. [7] The earthquake uplifted an area of 1500km 2 with a maximum of 2.7 m of uplift. In Hastings, about 1 m of ground subsidence occurred.The logarithm is denoted "log b x" (pronounced as "the logarithm of x to base b", "the base- b logarithm of x", or most commonly "the log, base b, of x"). The Napier urban area, as defined by Statistics New Zealand, is coterminous with the Napier City territorial authority and covers 105.05km 2 (40.56sqmi). [19] It had an estimated population of 67,500 as of June 2023, [2] with a population density of 643 people per km 2.

Napier's birthplace, Merchiston Tower in Edinburgh, is now part of the facilities of Edinburgh Napier University. There is a memorial to him at St Cuthbert's at the west side of Edinburgh. [2] Life [ edit ] A quadrantal spherical triangle is defined to be a spherical triangle in which one of the sides subtends an angle of π/2 radians at the centre of the sphere: on the unit sphere the side has length π/2. In the case that the side c has length π/2 on the unit sphere the equations governing the remaining sides and angles may be obtained by applying the rules for the right spherical triangle of the previous section to the polar triangle A'B'C' with sides a',b',c' such that A' = π− a, a' = π− A etc. The results are: Q1) cos ⁡ C = − cos ⁡ A cos ⁡ B , (Q6) tan ⁡ B = − cos ⁡ a tan ⁡ C , (Q2) sin ⁡ A = sin ⁡ a sin ⁡ C , (Q7) tan ⁡ A = − cos ⁡ b tan ⁡ C , (Q3) sin ⁡ B = sin ⁡ b sin ⁡ C , (Q8) cos ⁡ a = sin ⁡ b cos ⁡ A , (Q4) tan ⁡ A = tan ⁡ a sin ⁡ B , (Q9) cos ⁡ b = sin ⁡ a cos ⁡ B , (Q5) tan ⁡ B = tan ⁡ b sin ⁡ A , (Q10) cos ⁡ C = − cot ⁡ a cot ⁡ b . {\displaystyle {\begin{alignedat}{4}&{\text{(Q1)}}&\qquad \cos C&=-\cos A\,\cos B,&\qquad \qquad &{\text{(Q6)}}&\qquad \tan B&=-\cos a\,\tan C,\\&{\text{(Q2)}}&\sin A&=\sin a\,\sin C,&&{\text{(Q7)}}&\tan A&=-\cos b\,\tan C,\\&{\text{(Q3)}}&\sin B&=\sin b\,\sin C,&&{\text{(Q8)}}&\cos a&=\sin b\,\cos A,\\&{\text{(Q4)}}&\tan A&=\tan a\,\sin B,&&{\text{(Q9)}}&\cos b&=\sin a\,\cos B,\\&{\text{(Q5)}}&\tan B&=\tan b\,\sin A,&&{\text{(Q10)}}&\cos C&=-\cot a\,\cot b.\end{alignedat}}}Mirifici logarithmorum canonis descriptio Descriptio De Arte Logistica English Translation by Ian Bruce Napier's rules for quadrantal triangles A quadrantal spherical triangle together with Napier's circle for use in his mnemonics Flooding in Napier as heavy rain sweeps across North Island".

Given a positive real number b such that b ≠ 1, the logarithm of a positive real number x with respect to base b is the exponent by which b must be raised to yield x. In other words, the logarithm of x to base b is the unique real number y such that . Napier's reticulated water supply is drawn from the Heretaunga Plains artesian aquifer below the city through seven bores. The city's water demand averages 27,500m 3 (970,000cuft) per day, with demand in summer peaking at 39,400m 3 (1,390,000cuft) per day.
