A Simple Device for Aiding the Programming of the Lgp-30 Digital Computer

摘要

A simple device for aiding machine language programming of the General Precision LGP-30 digital computer is described. This aid (similar to a circular sliderule) facilitates program time optimization, bit weighting and binary point location, and binary-hexadecimal-decimal conversion. In addition, frequently needed tables are printed on the aid. Full-scale reproductions of the aid scales are included to permit easy construction. (Author)
