An arithmetic package to operate on 36-bit signed integers.

The operations are add, subtract , multiply, divide, input

conversion, and output conversion. The largest integer

which may be represented is 2³⁵-l or 10 decimal digits.

The routines simulate a 36-bit (3 word) accumulator in core

locations 40, 41, and 42 and a 36-bit multiplier quotient

register in core locations 43, 44, and 45. Aside from the few

locations in page 0, the routines use less core storage space

than the equivalent double precision routines.
