Each row is one colony number on this day — a stock, a daily flow, or an outcome. The range beside it is what that number could be once every other number on the day is taken into account.
Type a value into a cell to pin it (lock it to that value); every other
range immediately re-tightens around your choice. Pinning an outcome (such
as deaths_cum) back-solves what the inputs would have to be. The engine
does all the arithmetic — these numbers are its answer, not the page's.
First move: try pinning the highlighted cell below
(ration_fraction — how much of each person's need is fed that day) and
watch the food, deficit, and death ranges move. Then hit Commit… to see what
would change against canon.
| quantity | pin (end of day) | opening | canon (end of day) | headroom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
