Cover Quote: October 2001

I would in future make a machine, which would simultaneously print in printer’s ink any arbitrary arithmetical progression... and which would halt of its own accord, when the side of the paper was full up. After setting the first figure, all one has to do is turn a handle.



- Johann Helfrich Muller
