`_`	(the underscore) is the placeholder for exactly one character.
`%`	(the percent sign) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character.
`%%`	(two percent signs) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character, but not for blank space (so that a search ends at word boundaries).

Prague, Národní Knihovna České Republiky, V.A.11 (802)

Date:

s. XV¹ (before 1432; Truhlář dates the MS to the 14^th c.).

Prov.:

Johannes Andree Schindel by c. 1431-1432 (see f. 14v-15r).

Paper, 68 f., two hands (f. 1-50v and 51r-68v).

Mathematics: Ptolemaica (1r-59v); scattered astronomical notes and diagrams (59v-68v). Blank: 64r.

Note The notes f. 59v-68v include, on f. 62v, four proofs that are reworkings of proofs from Almagest, I.9 and I.12 or of the Almagesti minor, I.4-7 (‘… habemus FHK FK sit corda nota — ergo proportion DA ad EA surgit ex proportionibus DF ad FG et GB ad BE, quod proposuimus’). They have however different diagram letters (and diagrams are missing), so that it is difficult to say how similar or dissimilar they are from Almagest or Almagesti minor. The other notes are not directly related to Almagest or Almagesti minor, they include a note on lunar years with a table (59v), a set of notes on optics (60r-62r), notes on lunar and solar eclipses (63r-63v) collection of values related to the Sun, the Moon and the planets (64v-66v), a little note on epicycles (67r) and diagrams and values for Saturn (?), Jupiter and Mars (67v-68v) (communication Henry Zepeda, 18 November 2014).
