Random information on the term “QED”:
Q.E.D. or QED is an initialism of the Latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum, meaning “which was to be demonstrated”. Literally it states “what was to be shown”. Traditionally, the abbreviation is placed at the end of mathematical proofs and philosophical arguments in print publications, to indicate that the proof or the argument is complete.
The phrase quod erat demonstrandum is a translation into Latin from the Greek ὅπερ ἔδει δεῖξαι (hoper edei deixai; abbreviated as ΟΕΔ). Translating from the Latin phrase into English yields “what was to be demonstrated”. However, translating the Greek phrase ὅπερ ἔδει δεῖξαι can produce a slightly different meaning. In particular, since the verb “δείκνυμι” also means to show or to prove, a different translation from the Greek phrase would read “The very thing it was required to have shown.”
The Greek phrase was used by many early Greek mathematicians, including Euclid and Archimedes.
