I went through multiple volumes of engineering computation notebooks during the course of my college term. I hadn’t seen these computation notebooks since college days, when I used them a lot in my engineering classes. You’re right – it does make things easier to format and understand. They weren’t literally computation notebooks, but the pages were graphed in the same way that our notebooks were, to better aid in illustrating the diagrams of the circuits. I’ve used them as well for some of my computer classes, but what’s interesting is that one of my electronics courses had textbooks that were all laid out in what appeared to be computation notebooks. October 5, - Computation notebooks are quite common in both computer science and engineering. I guess I never bothered to photocopy my work or I would have known that. That’s a great feature in my opinion it immediately makes your “sketch” look like a finished print, without any guide lines. October 6, - I had no idea that computation notebooks would not reveal their graph lines when photocopied.
