A general numerical procedure, called the discrete S/sub n/ method, for solving the neutron transport equation is described. The main topics relate to the derivation of suitable difference equations, and to the problem of solving these, while maintaining generality, accuracy, and reasonable computing speed. A few comparisons with other methods are made. (auth
