[edit] Cleanup

This page needs some cleanup. The phrase "translations of which ..." is chaotic. I changed "decimal" to "decimal point" but someone who knows should say exactly what Pitiscus is supposed to be credited with, since it is not clear it was a "point". (A decimal separator of some kind was certainly known before him.) Zaslav 11:42, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
