Re^5: Compare two dates - what's Renard Series?

I am interested in manufacturing, from the point of centrally planning an economy. Albeit, I had no practical exposure to it ever and so all this stuff and your explanation is interesting and helpful.

Wouldn't increasing tolerances just for the sake of not overlapping, going to be a headache for users? Is this "best practice" in design? I mean I buy 2 screws and the bigger one has double (percentage-wise) tolerance than that of the smaller one!

... increasing tolerances just for the sake of not overlapping ... 2 screws and the bigger one has double (percentage-wise) tolerance ... But the tolerances of the items in question do not change, only their ranges of absolute value. E.g., for 10% (i.e., +/-10%) resistors, a 100 ohm resistor has a range of 90 to 110 ohms, the 82 ohm resistor "below" it ranges over 73.8 - 90.2 ohms, and the 120 ohm resistor "above" it ranges over 108 - 132 ohms. At the other end of that magnitude, 820, 1000 and 1200 ohm 10% resistors range over 738 - 902, 900 - 1100 and 1080 - 1320 ohms respectively. Give a man a fish: `<%-{-{-{-<`	[reply] [d/l]

oh my mistake, I thought the firsts-in-the-scale are 5%. Reading it again they all have 10% tolerance and do not overlap. which is win-win.	[reply]
