Paint Coverage Calculator implementation

Binding contract

This record describes what an executable surface must bind and validate. It does not claim that a public calculator, package, or production route is deployed.

Effect

Computation or source lookup only

Input and validation requirements

The zero-coverage input produces an undefined division and must be rejected. The specification also does not explicitly define whether openings are always nonnegative magnitudes, creating a sign-convention hazard that can change the computed volume.

Required corrections

No binding erratum is attached to this unique-name record. Implementers must still preserve the declared units, domain, and failure behavior.

Inspectable interface fixture

The sample below is evidence for interface and validation tests, not a production implementation.
