Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.
Calculation steps and notation
sum(list) adds all entries in the list.
Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Straight ridge runs and supplied product effective coverage; positive runs and physical length>lap≥0. Junction products explicitly counted. Supported limits: All numeric inputs must be finite. Only the explicitly described mathematical scenario is supported.
