# String/Wind Instrument Fundamental Frequency (String Length) implementation

A source-bound implementation contract for String/Wind Instrument Fundamental Frequency (String Length); deployment and executable qualification remain separate.

Status: **VERIFIED_CLEAN**Lifecycle: **implementation-contract**

## 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.

**Record owner**: Guth Instruments

**Lifecycle**: verified-clean

**Evidence ID**: t4-133

**Effect**: Computation or source lookup only

## Input and validation requirements

Zero length and zero linear mass density produce division-by-zero, while negative tension produces a non-real square-root argument. The specification also lacks an explicit unit convention, allowing a 100-fold frequency discrepancy for the same numeric length.

## 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.
