A description of the special-purpose wartime punched-card calculators originally developed by IBM for the United States Army. . The complete issue, in original printed wrappers. Octavo. Library rubberstamp on front wrapper. Very good. The first two machines of this type, were built during the war for the Aberdeen proving ground, were delivered in December 1944, and were in operation during the last eight months of the war…For comparison with the I.B.M. Sequence Controlled Calculator at Harvard this machine is limited in internal storage capacity, number of significant figures, and flexibility of sequencing; on the other hand, multiplying speed is about twenty times as great."

Description:
The complete volume, in original green printed wrappers. Octavo. Library rubberstamp on front wrapper, otherwise fine. "From 1940 to 1944 Eckert served as director of the United States Nautical Almanac Office (USNAO) at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., where he set up a computation laboratory similar to the one he had left at Columbia. One of his chief tasks at the USNAO was to develop and compute tables for the American Air Almanac, a navigational tool used by the United States armed forces. Eckert devised punched-card methods of generating the tables and a mechanical method of proofreading, using the comparing device on the punched-card reproducer, that insured the absolute accuracy of the tables. These methods are outlined in Eckert's paper, which also contains his account of an improved table-printing machine designed by IBM and installed in February 1945" (Hook and Norman, 577).
