Abstract
- The author comments regarding the method for performing Boolean OR, AND and NOT operations using arithmetic and conditional transfer operations presented by M. Morris Mano. He states that the operations are useful in many cases but they are seriously limited by the OR operation in many ways. He notes that in a Fortran program, not all Boolean functions that contain an OR operation can be placed in the parenthesis of an IF statement. He also reveals that because of the number of necessary conditional transfers, a function which includes all three operations is more difficult to program.
