We're both showing our ages in admitting that we (once at least) knew how to use a slide rule, though it's a skill that I've long since lost. I like the way that you've focussed in just on the essential characteristics of the rule here.

I so loved my slide rule! Got me thru 4 yrs of engineering school.
