A numerical method for the direct computation of the particle densities, mass density, enthalpy and specific heat at constant pressure of a monatomic ionized gas in thermodynamic equilibrium is presented. This method permits calculation of the thermodynamic properties without iteration or numerical differentiation of any of the formulae.
