“There's my education in computers, right there; this is the whole thin...” — Howard Aiken Quote

There's my education in computers, right there; this is the whole thing, everything I took out of a book.

The desire to economize time and mental effort in arithmetical computations, and to eliminate human liability to error is probably as old as the science of arithmetic itself.
