Back to manuscript

Reserve one block of

bits, containing:

  • 24 reports;

  • the exact signed parameter;

  • installed and supplied-token indices;

  • a 16-bit control reserve for schedule stage, source stage, mode, two one-bit permissions, validity, and padding;

  • six location bits for each of original names.

Fixed identifiers, frame, formulas, and code dictionaries belong to separately charged programme storage. The canonical decoder reconstructs the exact symbolic geometry from the index, parameter, mode, and formulas. Reports are consistency data, not the underlying geometry.
