FORMULA RULES (strict — the formula compiles to a single JS function the page runs):
- Identifiers on either side MUST exactly match the camelCase names you declared in inputs/outputs.
- Every output[].name MUST appear on the LEFT side of a "name = expression" line.
- Use ^ for powers (e.g. (1+r)^n) OR pow(x, y).
- Allowed math functions: sqrt abs sin cos tan log ln exp pi pow min max round floor ceil sign random.
- No comments, no "where ..." clauses, no if/else/ternary, no string outputs, no Σ, no subscripts, no arrays, no recursion.
- Single-step computation only. If conditional logic is needed, use boolean arithmetic: (cond > 0) exprA + (cond <= 0) exprB.
- The bug context lists what the legacy version got wrong. FIX IT.
- 2-5 inputs typical; outputs are plain numbers.
