Users should note that all calculations in DRAC are made prior to rounding, although all values reported in the output table are given to 3 decimal places. Users may therefore note a small discrepancy between the age reported by DRAC and the value calculated when dividing De by Ḋ using the values from the output table. This does not represent an error in calculation, but rather the effects of rounding.
