Need a Formula for calculating:
A length, X , is to be divided into a number of segments Y, the first segment the largest and each subsquent segment smaller in a linear regression so that the total of each segment size equals the length X.
Eample: X = 1 inch and Y=11 segments
Segment 1 > Segment 2, Segment 2 > Segment 3, ...............Segment 10 > Segment 11
The size reduction must be linear and when all segments are totaled the value equals X
