Image description

These life assurance tables were calculated by the Scheutz Difference Engine No 3 bought by the General Register Office. Father and son, George and Edvard Scheutz, built an engine based on the ideas of the British computing pioneer Charles Babbage. It was a means of eliminating errors of calculation, transcription and printing, by producing multiple copies when printing log tables. The numbers were impressed onto papier mache or metal strips. These were then used as moulds from which multiple copies of the results could be printed.
