An efficient algorithm is described for generating subsets of a set
S which satisfy constraints of the form: “If
si is a member of the subset, then
sj must also be a member of the subset.” The algorithm has been programmed in …

In the main text of the paper [
Comm. ACM 9, 12 (Dec. 1966), 864], a FORMAC program was discussed which is capable of calculating various quantities of interest in tensor calculus. This Appendix is intended as an example of the …
