962	 Double-Precision Squares Root for The CDC-	 In January of the late Hans J. Maehly completed a summary of approximations to the elementary functions for the CDC- computer. The approximations and techniques suggested by Maehly are equally applicable to the second large computer in the CDC line the . Unlike the however the has built-in double-precision floating-point arithmetic. The present work largely inspired by the successes of Maehly and his associates concerns the extension of one of Maehly s ideas to a double-precision subroutine for the .
