Or if you're more into books, you can check out this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-reviews/0833030477/ref=cm_cr_dp_pt... (The reviews are quite amusing). -J
Gack! My first job out of highschool involved hours keying entries from this book into an electromechanical calculator. (You may recall my boss berating me for scaling by 360, which "ruins the randomness", instead of searching for entries between 0 and 360 to use for random angles.) If there is any economic reason to reprint this 1955 relic, then they might as well print the digits of pi. rwg CONTAMINATED: NO ADMITTANCE
