WEB ACCESSIBILITY NOTICE
To ensure accesibility, the University of Iowa will probably freeze this web site on April 22, 2027, and will probably delete it in 2028.

These tutorials are characterized by an interest in doing arithmetic on machines with just binary add, subtract, logical and shift operators, making no use of special hardware support for such complex operations as BCD arithmetic or multiplication and division. While some of these techniques are old, they remain relevant today.
