Rave Review

I am not a subscriber to any personal computer magazine, although I pick one
up occasionally.  I want you to know that from the few BYTEs I've picked up,
I have been impressed with your articles on numeric methods and calculations
methods [sic].

I just read "Error-Free Fractions" by Peter Wayner (June).  This was something
completely new to me, even though I have taken a course on numeric analysis
and my occupation as an engineer requires me to deal with numerically intensive
applications.

BYTE seems to be unique among personal computing magazines in carrying such
articles, and the articles that I have read intensively seem to reflect the
state of the art.  I hope you continue to carry such articles and continue the
same high quality.  It makes your magazine a standout among personal computer
magazines.
