I don't need mathematical tools, i've already sketched out the entire calculation! You've seen the "snowflakes" . . . It's just that i don't want to plunge my computer into a month-long calculation that might cause it to crash, especially if some bright mathematician could have come up with a better method, either in the programming (to make it run quicker) or in the details of how the formula is defined (in case there's something more elegant) . . . ____________________________________________________________ To learn how to configure this list via e-mail (subscribe, unsubscribe, etc.), send a message to listar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the subject line "info tuning-math".
