Re: Bitter distances:
That was too careless of me.
How good is that?

In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.

Re: Bitter distances:
Thanks.
Now, please tell me why coordinates are not important?

Re: Bitter distances:
EVW has a different solution that she will show when she posts. It seems to be more logical then what we three did.

Re: Bitter distances:
Experimentally of course! Want to see how?

Re: Bitter distances:
Sure.
I do not think that there is any theoretical way to get the co-ordinates as opposed to experimental.
