Abstract
Phenomenological renormalisation is used to calculate the exponent nu and the connective constant of the self-avoiding walk problem on a square lattice. A transfer matrix technique is developed for the polymer problem. The results indicate that Flory's value nu =0.75 is true in two dimensions to extremely high accuracy.Keywords
