RAND REAC Manual

Abstract

The myriad modifications of the RAND REAC by Bill Gunning and associates have necessitated the writing of a manual to replace the obsolete Reeves instructions. Moreover, this manual will permit the recording of RAND computing experiences gained in two years of REAC operation. The installation of the removable IBM-type plugboard is the major modification made on the REAC and as a consequence will receive the major emphasis. This manual demands of the reader a knowledge of Kirchhoff's Laws, operational calculus notation, etc. Instructions for the neophyte will appear in the future in a less foreboding form and size than this manual.
