(Semi) Numerical Book Titles


An idle curiosity led me to wonder how many of the first few integers had been used in book titles. I knew that, theoretically, the number of such titles could only increase, so that as time wound ever on, there would be a huge stretch of consecutive integers that had appeared as titles. Perhaps fractions would show up, negatives, and here and there an irrational, or complex value, so that eventually it might even be possible to do some crazed form of arithmetic using only book titles.
