    Recently \textit{D. Harned} and \textit{W. Kerner} [ibid. 60, 62-75 (1985; Zbl 0581.76057)] have applied the semi-implicit algorithm [\textit{D. Gottlieb} and \textit{S. A. Orszag}, Numerical analysis of spectral methods (1977; Zbl 0412.65058)] to the full magnetohydrodynamics equations. However, the reduced MHD equations are still frequently used to describe low beta, large aspect ratio tokamaks. In this note we apply the semi-implicit algorithm to the reduced MHD equations.
