A special issue of the journal "On Line" is devoted to reporting the 1974 Instructional Computing in Michigan conference. The conference was divided into numerous sessions, and there are individual reports summarizing the activities and papers of each session. The sessions reported are on the instructional computing aspects of…

Describes a computer program which allows students to specify rather arbitrary sets of poles and zeros for the transfer function of a linear system. The computer evaluates/plots the systems impulse and step responses individually and displays them in reduced form along with the pole-zero plot. (JN)

Several problems involving "pi" and "e" can be approached by diagramming, flow charting, and computer programing. (SD)
