Learn it right — a suggestion. These are professional-grade instructions, and most people need instructional help the first time through. Our suggestion: pair this edition with an AI tutor, such as Claude by Anthropic (claude.ai) — paste an instruction's 📜 origin line, its formula, and your numbers, and ask Claude to walk you through what it means, the units, and how to read the result before you rely on it. The calculator computes; a tutor explains.
Provenance — who and what
Formulas and laws of nature are unpatentable — no one owns them. Every calculation names its origin, in-app and in the shipped ledgers (PROVENANCE.md + PROVENANCE-CARBON.md). The ten CGB Mathematical Depositions are © Christopher Gabriel Brown; every borrowed formula credits its originator and year.
In the box
- The AlchemyCalc Carbon app — one file (185 KB), no install, no internet, phone-ready
- The Proof button — the calculator verifies itself against known values, live on your device
- The Professor button — composes a full lesson prompt for an AI tutor such as Claude (claude.ai)
- Plain-English guide (laymen notes), quick-start, license & IP notice
- Both provenance ledgers and a fictional demo dataset
Emission factors are standard averages — for reporting-grade carbon accounting, use your jurisdiction's official factors.
