✦ Synopsis

A method for simulation by resistive networks is given for numbers like nm and n-" for 0 <m < 1. The method is based on Cauchy-type integral representations for irrational functions.

An algorithm to get networks from Cauchy-type integrals is used in the paper.

A similar method is used for simulation of transcendental numbers. Tapered resistive networks are obtained, which are easier to build by using integrated circuit technology.
