A trustworthy calculator exposes inputs, units, conversion factors, intermediate results, final values, and rounding. The goal is that a learner can reproduce a simple result independently and identify where a value came from.
Understand it
Display formulas beside results.
Keep exact calculation value separate from display rounding.
Record the version of the calculation logic when results become part of a batch record.
Important boundary
Do not ask users to trust a number they cannot inspect.
Try it
Explain the concept in your own words, then identify what plant, explant, stage, units, source, or observation context would need to be preserved before applying it.
