Geometric Series and Computers--An Application.

McNerney, Charles R.

School Science and Mathematics, v83 n2 p143-46 Feb 1983

This article considers the sum of a finite geometric series as applied to numeric data storage in the memory of an electronic digital computer. The presentation is viewed as relevant to programing in several languages and removes some of the mystique associated with syntax constraints that any language imposes. (MP)
