Dear Helmut,

I correct my code as following:

...
k <- (log(1.25)/CV2se(0.3))
if (CV>=0.3) theta1 <- exp(-k*CV2se(CVr)) else theta1 <- 0.8
# change k to 0.760 if you prefer to take the EMA guidance
# literally, carved in stone :cool: letter by letter and number by number
# ("kein Tüttelchen davon abweichen")

...


I do this because I wont take liability of collpasing bridges, derailing trains of Deutsche Bahn, etc. :-D

BTW: R
> options(digits=30)
Error in options(digits = 30) :
  invalid 'digits' parameter, allowed 1...22
> options(digits=22)
> pi
[1] 3.141592653589793
# only 16 digits!


I have learned in my early days during learning draftsman in agrar melioration engineering that 22/7=3.142857 is an good estimate. Very near to your 3.14! Maybe there were not so much circles involved, but more triangles and rectangles :-D.

Regards,

Detlew

if only they could discover enough facts about a problem,
these facts would somehow arrange themselves
in a compelling and true solution.    Theodosius Dobzhansky
