Peer reviewedTillitt, Harley E. – Journal of Library Automation, 1970
This 1954 paper is presented for its historical importance. It describes a method by means of which the 701 Calculator can perform certain library searching tasks. (MF)
Descriptors: Automation, Calculators, Computer Programs, Computers
Spero, Samuel W. – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
A computer program is presented that generates problem sets involving sketching graphs of trigonometric functions using graphical addition. The students use calculators to sketch the graphs and a computer solution is used to check it. (MP)

Peterson, Ivars – Science News, 1982
By handling numbers in unexpected ways, computers and calculators create headaches for computer programers and set traps for unsuspecting users by sometimes producing wrong answers. Specific examples of such computer/calculator errors are discussed. (Author/JN)
Descriptors: Calculators, Computer Programs, Computers, Error Patterns
Peer reviewedSavage, Michael – CoED, 1982
A hypothetical design optimization problem and technical information on the three design parameters are presented. Although this nested iteration problem can be solved on a computer (flow diagram provided), this article suggests that several hand held calculators can be used to perform the same design iteration. (SK)

Peer reviewedClosson, Richard Grant – American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education, 1981
A calculator program for a Texas Instruments Model 59 to predict serum theophylline concentrations is described. The program accommodates the input of multiple dose times at irregular intervals, clearance changes due to concurrent patient diseases and age less than 17 years. The calculations for five hypothetical patients are given. (Author/MLW)

Wilson, Jim – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
A short set of materials is presented on loops. Three worksheets illustrate loops with paper and pencil, calculator, and computer, respectively. A computer program is given. (MP)
Descriptors: Calculators, Computation, Computer Programs, Computers
Scott, Douglas E. – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
An algorithm for the calculator is given for determining the day of the week for any date. An instructional sheet, a worksheet, and a BASIC program are included. (MP)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Calculators, Computation, Computer Programs
Peer reviewedSchmidt, Stanley A. – American Journal of Physics, 1977
Describes one program each for performing Fourier analysis and synthesis with a Hewlett-Packard HP-25 calculator. (MLH)
Descriptors: Calculators, College Science, Computation, Computer Programs
