This 1969 textbook was written for high school seniors taking a one-semester course in computer mathematics. It is for students who have finished Algebra Two.

For this textbook to be effective, each student must have access to a time-sharing computer via a teletypewriter (TTY).

The first two chapters deal with an introduction to BASIC, flow charting, branching, looping, summing, counting, and debugging. After that the book devotes chapters to numbers, algebra, geometry, data, determinants, and show more approximations. show less
