Abstract :
This paper implements a memory system of improving the Goldschmidt algorithm. To accelerate the algorithm, a small correcting term is added to reduce the cycles needed to compute a divide or square root. The new method saves one iteration compared to the original method. Bipartite tables are included in the system for table lookups
