Treaty Arithmética The book written by João Antonio Coco was written when it was only 18 years old. Had wide acceptance both in Brazil and Portugal. The work received praise from mathematicians at the time P. Renoux and L. Tarbouriech being considered today
one of the best in its genre. Coconut also wrote a book titled-Solutions of the issues proposed in the Treaty of Arithmetic ‖.



João Antonio Coco (1837-1910). He was born in Sao Luis, Maranhao province.
