Abstract
Over the past five years I have written several programs for hand-held programmable calculators. Most of these programs have dealt with specific technical questions in the fields of optical design and optical fabrication. I have collected these programs in a notebook which is divided into ten sections by catagory. Section names and the individual program titles within each section are given in Table I. No attempt has been made to cover the field of optics or any subtopic thereof. None of these programs were originally written with the idea of publication or sale. I display them as a group on this occasion as a modest example of what can be done to take advantage of the tremendous computational power that has been bequeathed to each of us by the inventors of the pocket calculator.
