Abstract
The paper describes a general method for the numerical calculation of Laplace's inverse transform of a given function. The general method is then specialized to two cases in which the computer is shown to be of great use. An appendix contains the solution of the collateral problem of the numerical derivation of a function. Some results are given as examples.
