Re: rad decay software?



You're  right.  If no date is input, the program is probably ok.  Just to be 
sure, you should try running the program with your system date set >= 
1/1/2000.  Also, be sure to try 2/29/2000, since 1900 is not a leap year,
but 
2000 is. 
 
The opinions expressed are strictly mine. 
It's not about dose, it's about trust.
