3. On the Precautions to be taken in recording and using the Records of Original Computations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 September 2014
Extract
The real utility of tables of numerical results is only secured by making them accessible to those computers who may require them; and the essence of their utility lies in this, that the labour of a single computer saves that of many others.
It is indispensable that those who use the tables be able to rely implicitly on the accuracy of the tabulated numbers, and that they have a ready means of detecting any error should the existence of one be suspected.
