How are we supposed to guess? We would need many data points to decide which is best, and you did provide only one (which may not even be correct.) > Why isn't compute line so easy to only add ONE value to @. No > multiplikation anymore. Only addition. Is this a practical thought? We use the formula which gives the best result for the applicable range of temperatures. There's little point in having a slighly more simple equation if it gives less accurate results. -- Jean Delvare
