From the University of Newcastle upon Tyne spin-off Northern Digital comes a microprocessor whose maker claims to be the first to operate directly on numbers that are held in a logarithmic ...

(1) THIS is a clearly printed table of logarithms and antilogarithms to five places with a four figure argument and mean differences. A seven place table of (l+r/100) n for n = 1 to 9 and r = 0.00 to ...

From a university spin-off company in the North of England comes a microprocessor that is claimed to be the first to operate directly on numbers that it holds in a logarithmic representation. The ...

LOGARITHMS, as anyone forced to use them at school will recall, can speed up the process of mathematical calculation dramatically. By representing numbers as logarithms (with the help of a slide-rule, ...

You may find this hard to believe, but there are people still alive today who once did their mathematical calculations by sliding sticks back and forth. No keypads, no batteries, no LEDs. Just sticks.

THIS is a well-arranged and clearly printed book of forty-three octavo pages. Besides four figure logarithms of numbers and of circular functions, and the circular functions themselves, it contains a ...
