  • Abstract
    The automatic electronic computer is the result of years of evolution in the field of calculating machines. At present the field is developing so rapidly that a machine may become obsolete between the time it is designed and the date of its completion. Applications for high-speed calculators are increasing rapidly as the characteristics of the machines become more well known.
