Revolutionary Computing Machine Solves
Toughest Mathematical Problems With Ease
By DOUGLAS LABSEN
WASHINGTON (NEA) An
electric computing machine, 1000
times faster than any previously
built, has been developed by the
Army Ordnance Department at
the Moore School of Electrical
Engineering of the University of
Pennsylvania.
It will soon make possible ex
act, long-range weather predic
tions, aid radar explorations of
the universe and the study of
atomic energy and generally rev
olutionize the mathematics of
engineering, its inventors claim.
It is said to be one of the greatest
scientific "tools" ever developed.
And the potential effect on sci
ence of this mechanical robot
isn't fully realized yet, they say.
It Is called the ENIAC Elec
tronic Numerical Integrator and
Computer.
Inventors of the machine are
Dr. J. W. Mauchly and J. Presper
Eckert, both on the faculty of

Moore School
Containing close to 18,000 vac
uum tubes in its mechanism, the
new machine is1 a giant of elec
tronic precision. It occupies a
room 30 by 50 feet and weighs 30
tons. Cost of research and devel
opment was $400,000.
Solves Complex Problems
Mathematical problems and
equations whkih used to take
scientists weeks and months
even with the aid of the best elec
tric computers can be worked
out on the ENIAC in a few min
utes. This was demonstrated at
the first public showing of the
machine.
Although the machine was
originally developed to compute
lengthy and complicated firing
and bombing tables for the Army,
it will solve equally complex
peacetime problems.
Weather experts have devel
oped a mathematical equation
which' can forecast the weather
almost perfectly and for long
range. But there are innumer
able elements in the extremely
complex equation, such as tem
perature, wind speed, time of
year, etc. When all the quanti
ties are finally put in the equa
tion, the problem of solving it is
so complex it takes weeks to fig
ure it out. By the time the equa
tion is solved, the weather it was
supposed to forecast, is history.
But they have proved that the
equation is accurate. The ENIAC
will be able to compute this
weather equation in a few min
utes, Army experts claim.
It is known that the long time
it took just to figure out the com
plicated math in connection with
the manufacture of the atomic
bomb held up its completion for
a long time. Had the ENIAC been
invented soon enough it would
have shortened up the time it took
to make the A-Bomb consider
ably. And it will speed up further
development of atomic energy,
experts hope.
Although the ENIAC at the
Moore School is the only one in
existence, the Army plans to let
private companies manufacture
it. Several companies have al
ready expressed an interest in it.
The second machine, it is said,
could be made more compact and
at much less cost.
Phenomenal Speed
The speed of the ENIAC is
phenomenal. The first problem
put on it, which would have re
quired 100 man-years of trained
computer's work, was completed
in two weeks. Only two hours
was actual electronic computing
time. The rest was devoted to re
view of the results and details of
operation.
If used to complete capacity,
the ENIAC will carry out in five
minutes more than 10,000,000 ad
ditions or subtractions of ten
figure numbers. The machine
performs a single addition in
15000 of a second and can do a
number of distinct additions si
multaneously. It can do a single
multiplication by a ten-digit mul
tiplier in 1360 of a second, and

To County Road Fund
County Treasurer Grace M.
Schiska has received $129,997.87
in O and C money in lieu of taxes
on revested lands for the year
ending June 30.
The whoie amount will go into
the county's general road fund.
give a nine-digit result in divi
sion or square rooting in 138 of
a second.
With this speed many indus
trial and scientific problems j
which were left unsolved because
of the impracticability of work
ing them out will now be solvable.
In astronomical science -the sta
tistical tables On relative positions
of stars for navigational purposes
require years to compute. The
ENIAC opens up new fields here
and in connection with radar ex
ploration of the universe. Cosmo
logical studies of the universe lend
themselves to large-scale statis
tical treatment which will be
greatly aided by the ENIAC.
Has Limitations
It will also eliminate many of
the trial and error techniques
now used in industrial research
because of the previous imprac
ticability of figuring out the
theoretical mathematics before
hand, they say.
The new machine,, however,
does not remove the need for le
gitimate experimentation, its in
ventors point out. The calculator
does not replace original human
thinking, but rather frees scientif
ic thought from the drudgery of
lengthy calculating work,
The ENIAC was begun in July,
1943, and finished in the fall of
1945. So far it has been used ex
clusively for the Army to solve
ordnance problems. The questions
involved in its use by other
branches of the government, in
private industry and for other re
search are now being worked out.
Figures are placed in the
ENIAC on perforated cards and
the answers are also stamped out
on cards. There are only about
10 men those plose to its devel
opment who can use it.
Army does admit that the ma
chine has limitations Here are
a few:
It can't tell when the U. S.
budget will be balanced.
It can't figure out your income
tax for you.
It isn't practical for junior's
homework.
