Abstract
A further important factor is the design of the equations. Many early computing programs were not written in a suitably economical form. The nested form of an equation e.g. for calculation of the Meridional arc distance is equally valuable. Operations within parentheses are performed first. Inside the parentheses, the usual order of precedence is maintained.
