Abstract
As previously mentioned, the discrete time recurrence model in the study of population is credited to Euler, and has received sporadic and incomplete attention since his time. Indeed, the only development of this topic known to the author is an unpublished work by Meyer [1]. It is, therefore, in the best interest of the field of mathematical demography that this topic receive further exposure.
