** Your general comment to this point **
I guess it means that it is a very accurate program
** Why did you observe only certain time intervals? **
I guess it means that it is a very accurate program
** What did you see when you looked at the differences between time successive time intervals? **
The numbers repeat themselves frequently , and there is a pattern
** Your time intervals for 7 complete breaths: **
1853.078

4.96875
4.65625
4.78125
