Calculator reviewer — everyday life and food
H. Marchetti reviews the everyday-life and food calculators, checking that rules of thumb are labelled as approximations and that guidance involving food safety points readers to the check that actually matters rather than to a time estimate. Practical pages still need their method stated, and review confirms it is there.
What review means here
A reviewer is not the author. Before a calculator is published, the reviewer independently recomputes its worked test values, checks that the formula implemented matches the definition the page claims for it, and confirms the page is explicit about what it does not account for. Where a value is not definitional, the reviewer checks that a source is cited rather than assumed — and if one cannot be found, the calculator is dropped rather than guessed.
