AUTOMATIC digital electronic computers, such as the SILLIAC, have several features which are of use in simulation of genetic systems. These are the ability to form sets of pseudo-random numbers1, the ability to perform the operations of logical summation, equivalence, etc., and particularly the ability to perform a sequence of operations repeatedly at high speeds. A programme2 has been written for the SILLIAC which simulates the action of selection on a population segregating for six loci. The… Expand
