The computer includes a cyclic memory having at least as many storage cells as the grid has grid points. Each storage cell includes a first memory location for storing a corresponding grid point data unit and a second memory location for storing a code associated with the grid point data unit stored in the first memory location. The code contains information for controlling and processing the grid point data unit stored in the first memory location. A new grid point data unit is calculated for the grid point corresponding to a preselected storage cell by a computing circuit which uses mathematical operations involving data units associated with grid points adjacent the grid point corresponding to the preselected storage cell. | |
