Yep, I wondered where your code was outputting those nicely rounded values, as well as the table header. It seems I also misread at least one of your loops, so now it all seems quite OK to me.

AFAIK, the formula stumbles on the lower minconcs, just where you've decided to use those nice fixed values. There's also been doubts about its accuracy if minconc>100.
I'm personally wary of anything that's not pure integer math where Stars! formulas are concerned, since it would not be the 1st time that the *real* calculations for seemingly complex results were actually based on just integer ops.
Wish I could think of a better formula than the currently "best", but there's still hope.
So many Stars, so few Missiles!
