Abstract :
It is shown that a function is computable by an on-the-fly algorithm processing data in the most significant digit first fashion with a finite number of registers if and only if it is computable by a right subsequential finite state machine processing deterministically data in the least significant digit first fashion. Some applications to complex radix number systems are given
