The use of frequency-formulae with two constants will, therefore, 

 give satisfactory results only in those cases where the curve is of a 

 comparatively simple construction or if, by chance, <i„ (or A,) as 

 calculated by means of a and b, are approximately equal to the 

 observed values. 



Moreover, as the constants appear in exponential form, it will be 

 difficult to calculate Tables for the function and its integrals as /> 

 and 7 may assume all possible values and occur in an infinite 

 number of combinations. 



Constants for every month computed according to both formulae 

 from the data of Table I with the omission of the extreme values 

 are given in Tables VII and VIII.
