Abstract

The outputs of nervous systems (as expressed in motor activity) are viewed as mathematical transformations on the inputs which enter via the sensory nerves. Simple nerve-ganglion models are exhibited which theoretically account for the arithmetic computations necessary to expedite such transformations.
