                               This is a dominant seventh
                               chord in a key that would
                               normally make the chord                                 
                         
                               minor, e.g., D7 not Dm7
                               in key of C major.

               This was just not done. No 8's in 
               figured bass, ever.

So how did you do the slash through the 5 to indicate an
augmented 5th? Or through the 7th to indicate a maj7?
I got through integral calculus, but never associated the
delta with an integer increment. It's just not a similar
idea at all.
