Examples
Measured value: 98
Reference value: 100
Limitations
- Finite decimal arithmetic; zero reference refuses because relative error is undefined. No measurement uncertainty or statistical confidence inference. Signed percentage divides signed error by the absolute reference magnitude.
- Maximum 100,000 UTF-16 units per field, 400,000 UTF-8 combined input bytes, 4 MiB output and 30 seconds in a local worker. Tool-specific bounds may be tighter.
- Generated snippets are source text inside the JSON download. They are never executed by this tool. Local inspection does not verify remote systems or establish standards certification.
