Wheeler, Wilkes, and Gill designed a set of subroutines for a
computer before it was implemented, and there was for the first
time an available set of mathematical subroutines which were
more or less standardized in the way you put data into them and
the way you got data out of them, and made it possible to begin
to write programs a little more rapidly.
