Summary Computers permit data‐processing on a large scale, and more important, admit of the automatic control of the computing process on the basis of intermediate results. Econometric research stands to benefit largely from the first facility as there is a large volume of micro‐economic data that has hitherto remained unused. It is doubtful, however, whether econometrics can as yet make full use of the second possibility; much of it is of an experimental character and demands frequent decisions based on the judgement of the research worker. At present the main need is for research workers to exploit the computational facilities rather than for computing capacity in itself.
