Details are given of a simple computer program written in BASIC which calculates the sine of an angle through an application of DeMoivre's Theorem. The program is included in the material, and the program's success is discussed in terms of why the approximation works. (MP)

This paper outlines the development of an activity that uses the computer's unique capabilities to provide students with a meaningful and highly motivating experience with the graphing of equations. The basic design of the game calls for the computer to display a coordinate grid on which it graphs any equations that are typed in by the student.…

Programing a microcomputer to solve problems in whole-number arithmetic, rather than using the built-in operations of the computer, is described. Not only useful, it also enhances important mathematical concepts and is adaptable to a range of student abilities. (MNS)

Proposes that the first computer language course for students of management should teach the reading of the language rather than the writing of programs in that language. "Reading" means the study of the programing language literature, including a variety of algorithms, to understand the language, inputs, and program use. (MF)

Suggestions are given for having students write or modify computer programs for listing prime positive integers and continued fractions, to help them discover mathematical concepts. Sample programs are included. (MNS)
