Summary
Paper tape program, part of a collection of paper tape programs used for input to CSIRAC. This program was probably an output tape of some kind.
Physical Description
12 hole paper tape is generally of good quality but the 5 hole paper tape seems to be of variable quality; some tapes even fall apart or crumble. This item is of good quality. It is important therefore to keep it. There must have been a change in manufacture that caused the change in quality.
