Definition
A structured layout that sequences the extraction of GHA and declination, the increments, the corrections to altitude, the LHA computation, the table entry and the final intercept and azimuth. Its value is error prevention: each quantity has one box, and blank boxes reveal omitted steps. Different forms exist for sun, star, planet and moon sights, since the moon uses a second altitude correction from the additional table and both v and d corrections.
