Unsigned binary arithmetic goes back at least to the 704 in 1955.
I already said that it goes back to 1951, at least.
I suspect that it goes back farther. There was no concept of halfword at the time; it was all 36-bit words.
Logical AND, OR, etc. have comparable antiquity.
Logical AND, OR, EXCLUSIVE OR, etc, were already around by 1951. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
