I had been under the impression that since TAoCP covers the science more than any specific implementation (unless you happen to have a MIX machine) it wouldn't nessessarily be out of date. Does this mean that in fact the algorithms presented in 'The Art of Computer Programming: Semi-numerical algorithms Vol 3' are not in fact as sound as there were a few decades ago?
