I have received several requests for references to the CORDIC method
of calculating sin, cos, log, exp, arcsin, etc. Since others may
also be interested, and since in any case the mail system and I are
not currently on good terms, here is the list:

      on Electronic Computers, vol. EC-8 (September 1959), pp. 330-334.
