| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Weak on Square Roots" by Russell Burton is a science fiction short story published in the early 1950s. The narrative revolves around the creation of a robot named Pascal by Ronald Lovegear, who struggles to balance his obsession with technology and his marital relationship. The story explores themes of artificial intelligence, human emotions, and the potential complexities that arise when machines take on roles traditionally held by people. The plot follows Ronald as he brings home Pascal, a cutting-edge computer intended to become a mechanical servant. As Ronald immerses himself in perfecting Pascal's functionality, his wife, Corinne, becomes increasingly drawn to the robot, experiencing a conflicting mix of affection and disdain towards both Pascal and Ronald. The story culminates in a poignant moment when Ronald discovers a moment of intimacy between Corinne and Pascal, leading him to a painful realization about his wife’s emotional connection to the robot. Ultimately, he decides to rid their lives of Pascal, throwing away the pumpkin-headed creation that had inadvertently transformed their lives in ways he had not anticipated.
