"Returns approx. percentage tolerance of INT-A * INTV-B.
Assumes all numbers in INTV-A and INTV-B are positive.
Say 2⨦.10 and 7⨦.20 are the two intervals.
The lower and upper bounds of the product of these interavals:
(2 - 0.10) * (7 - 0.20) ; Lower bound
(2 - 0.10) * (7 - 0.20) ; Upper bound
Lower bound -> (2 - 0.10) * (7 - 0.20)
-> (2 * 7) - (2 * 0.20) - (7 * 0.10) + (0.10 * 0.20)
X Y Z
-> (2 * 7) - (X + Y - Z)
-> (2 * 7) - (X + Y) ; ignore Z as it is small.
Upper bound -> (2 + 0.10) * (7 + 0.20)
-> (2 * 7) + (2 * 0.20) + (7 * 0.10) + (0.10 * 0.20)
X Y Z
-> (2 * 7) - (X + Y + Z)
-> (2 * 7) - (X + Y) ; ignore Z as it is small.
=> Percentage tolerance is ⨦ (X + Y)"
