Abstract:

A digital computer program was developed for use in the study of acoustic noise transmission in machinery systems aboard Navy ships. The program interprets a list of three digit code numbers as mathematical and data inputoutput operations. The computations are done for complex variables, and both single elements and matrices can be manipulated with ease. The instructions may be given to the computer at a rate of 24 per card instead of 1 per card, thereby greatly reducing key punch time. Since there are relatively few code numbers, their use can be quickly mastered by persons unfamiliar with computer languages. Author
