The method by which Hill and Brown solved the equations of motion of the moon utilizing multiple Fourier series are described, and a way of adapting this method to a computer using an algebraic processor called POLYPAK is shown. That is, computer programs written in PL/I are called as subroutines by POLYPAK, which is a package for the manipulation of real or complex power series in several variables. Brown's computations for the main problem of lunar theory (a simplified 3-body problem) are redone before proceeding to the planetary perturbations. Also described is the way of computing the second and higher order terms of the main problem.
