[Commentary:
Here Harriot devises a method of squaring .99999999997755 by treating it 1.00000000000000-0.00000000010000+0.00000000007755.
After carrying out the first calculation in full, he sees that he can shorten the method by neglecting very small terms. He also sees another short cut by letting f=c-d.
He continues squaring until he reaches .99999999856320. ]
