How certain is your answer?

Follow uncertain inputs through a formula. Compare first-order propagation with seeded Monte Carlo, see which inputs contribute most, and catch incompatible units before calculating.

The bench illustrates a supplied measurement model. Rust calculates the result; the scene displays it. No sample cloud or probability density is invented from the returned intervals.

Arrays, coordinates and nested contracts remain editable here. Units and limits are checked by the real tool.

Runs only when you press the button. Input edits discard the previous displayed result. Public compute limits apply.

KNOW WHAT THE RESULT MEANS

Useful evidence needs boundaries.

  • Reported uncertainty is conditional on the supplied formula, distributions and correlations. Unmodelled biases are not covered.
  • A first-order interval may be inadequate for a nonlinear model. More Monte Carlo draws do not repair an invalid physical model.
  • A convergence diagnostic concerns the sampling calculation; it is not a guarantee about a real measurement.
  • Signed correlation contributions are shown separately. Independent variance shares must not be read as the complete correlated budget.
  • The illustration is conceptual. Only a completed call supplies numerical intervals and contribution heights.
