Bertrand-Chebyshev Theorem: Also known as

The Bertrand-Chebyshev Theorem is also known as Bertrand"s Postulate or Bertrand"s Conjecture.

Some sources give this as Chebyshev"s theorem (in number theory) to distinguish it from a theorem in statistics.

This article, or a section of it, needs explaining. In particular: Replace the above with something more precise, and a link, when we have established what theorem that is. You can help $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ by explaining it. To discuss this page in more detail, feel free to use the talk page. When this work has been completed, you may remove this instance of {{Explain}} from the code.
