what should an equation return? #14

Closed jborbely closed 4 months ago

jborbely commented 4 months ago

Currently, the documentation for the value from the <equation> states that it returns the corrected value.

Should it return the correction to apply to the value? e.g., $\Delta{t}$ in $t=T +\Delta{t}$ (like what is expressed in reports from the Humidity team).

Similarly, this needs to be decided for the uncertainty <equation>.

I would prefer the corrected value, as it stands, to make sure that the correction is applied correctly!

The uncertainty would be the actual uncertainty value? Or are you referring to the standard/expanded debate?

jborbely commented 4 months ago

I prefer the corrected value as well.

Or are you referring to the standard/expanded debate?

Yes, just thinking about that debate

Decision: Returns the corrected value.
