uncertErrorCorr {masscor}

Uncertainty due to mass correction using calibration certificate

Description

Given a balance reading indication and the calibration information of the balance, the function uses the conventional mass correction uncertainties of the two closest calibration points to the balance reading to interpolate the uncertainty due to the conventional mass correction.

Usage

uncertErrorCorr(calibCert, reading, units = NULL)

Arguments

calibCert

object of class "calibCert" with the calibration data of the balance. See calibCert() for details.

reading

numeric with balance reading for the mass of the object.

units

character with the units of reading. Must be a SI unit. If not provided, the balance standard units are assumed. See calibCert() for details.

Value

A numeric value of uncertainty for a conventional mass correction.
