Abstract
Analyses of two types of computational errors inherent in digital differential analyzer (DDA) operation are presented. Even though the emphasis is on the statistical analysis of round-off error, truncation error is also discussed in detail. The basic functional block of the computer, the integrator, is represented by a transform. Transform representation leads to analytical simplification in that block-diagram algebra and other phases of transform theory can be applied. Analysis of a high-resolution type of DDA is introduced as an extension to the theory. Examples are illustrated in Appendixes I ¿ IV.Keywords
