Claim:
A computer based method for calculating and finding the values of axis (axes) fraction, total fraction and a number, said method comprising the steps of: choosing a N-dimensional vector set having N number of elements; calculating a first damping factor (D 1 ) for the N number of elements present in the vector set; adding a new element [X k , Y k ] to the N-dimensional vector set, wherein the properties of the new element on the entire vector set is to be examined; calculating the sum of the distances [S], from a line or plane or a higher dimension which is assumed to pass through [0, 0.01] and [0.01,0] to all the points of observation [P i ]; S=ΣP i calculating a second damping factor (D 2 ) for N+1 number of elements present in the vector set; calculating axis fraction of the added element [X k , Y k ] using the formula: Axis fraction of the added element [ X k ,Y k ]=σ/ X k =σ/Y k wherein, σ=D 2 -D 1 , is the change of damping factor with the addition of the new element [X k , Y k ] forming a trapezium using the points [ 0 ,D 1 ],[ 0 ,D 2 ],[D 2 , 0 ] and [D 1 , 0 ], and calculating the area (A) or volume differentiated (V); calculating total fraction of the new element as S/A or S/V; calculating New number=Axis fraction X Total fraction of the element; and providing the new number as a result of the method.
