The low cost Calculo Analog Computer was designed as by Science Material Center, Inc. as a basic introduction to the general method of operating analog computers. It has an accuracy in multiplication and division of about 5%, though it could be increased somewhat by means of certain tricks offered by the manufacturer. With such accuracy the purpose of the computer was not to serve as an accurate computing device, but rather as an estimating machine. The Calculo Analog Computer is capable of the following calculations:
- Multiplication
- Division
- Roots
- Powers
- Calculation of a compound interest
- Trigonometric formulas
