As the process is somewhat intricate, we append the following example, to show the nature of the calculation performed, in order to ascertain the amount of credits due to each student:-- REPORT OF THE CREDITS GAINED IN THE FIRST YEAR’S COURSE OF STUDY BY M. N., STUDENT AT THE POLYTECHNIC SCHOOL. [Outer Rows:] Subject of Examination, Co-efficient of Influence; Sum of Products, Mean Credit in each Subject of the Course [Inner Rows:] Nature of Examination or Proof; Credit obtained by the Student, Co-efficient of Influence, Product
