paper tape

Punched paper tape. An early
input/output and storage medium borrowed from telegraph
and teletype systems.

Data entered at the keyboard of the teletype could be directed
to a perforator or punch which punched a pattern of holes
across the width of a paper tape to represent the characters
typed. The paper tape could be read by a tape reader feeding
the computer. Computer output could be similarly punched onto
tape and printed off-line.

As well as storage of the program and data, use of paper tape
enabled batch processing.

The first units had five data hole positions plus a sprocket hole
(for the driving wheel) across the width of the tape. These used
commercial telegraph code (ITA2 also known as Murray), {Baudot
code} or proprietary codes such as Elliott which were more
programmer-friendly. Later systems had eight data holes and used
ASCII coding.
