Accuracy Management of early HPs
Hi all.
Earlier, I read the the Nov. '76 Jornal article 'The New Accuracy: Making 2^3=8.' So, with calculators returning 10 digit results within the limits of algorithm accuracy and a finite digit count, how were calculators viable and relevant for use in the sciences, especially places such JPL, MIT, CalTech, hardware such as space/oceanographic equipment and missions? |
