Coding errors in BASIC program
The following coding errors
were found in Schaefer BASIC program, but they are corrected in the
new updated version [pers. comm. Schaefer [2001]
and Sky&Telescope [2016]):
- 260 BL=B(3)/1.02E-15 : REM in nanoLamberts
This is more a 'warning': as the present 1.11 value is not far
off.
- 1170 KA=KA*((1-.32/LOG(RH/100.0))^1.33)*(1+0.33*SL*SIN(RA))
- 2290 BT=BT*(100/RS)*(1.0-10.0^(-.4*K(I)*X))
Only the last two errors had significant effect (depending on the RA
of Sun) on the results around twilight conditions (like helical
events).
