Krylov was concerned with efficient computations and, as a computational scientist, he counts the work as a number of separate numerical multiplications, something not very typical for a 1931 mathematical paper.

Makarov to fight the heel of a sinking ship by flooding its undamaged compartments: "This appeared to be such a great nonsense that it took 35 years… to convince
