RAM A C          is a generic term that has been
coined to mean Random Access Method of Accounting and Control.

of machines designed to approach in-line accounting
on a mechanized basis. This approach requires the use of a
storage device that permits rapid access to any of
several million characters of data comprising the accounting records.
