What does the word integer mean in Latin

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-11-02] [Hit: ]
literally untouched, hence whole: the word entire comes from the same origin, but via French entier (which not surprisingly also means mathematical integer). Hence integral which is the adjective form.Regards,Dragon.......
Whole

Hello,

The word "integer" comes from the Latin "integer", literally "untouched", hence "whole": the word entire comes from the same origin, but via French "entier" (which not surprisingly also means mathematical "integer"). Hence "integral" which is the adjective form.

Regards,
Dragon.Jade :-)
