We are most grateful to
Professor Singmaster for making these invaluable research articles available.
.
Most of these files come from a 2004 revision. In the process of removing obsolete data from the headers, many of the files now show an irrelevant "Last Update" date. Last updates were prior to 2006 and in many cases earlier years.
FORMATS: -
The documents were originally in Locoscript, Wordperfect, or MS Word. We will be converting the files to PDF or HTML. However this is not always easy as some contain obscure alphabets or complex formulas. Rather than waiting for the conversions we decided to make some available unconverted.
