Wow! Thanks Tracy, I tried to adjust my pot in my voltage divider (that
attached to my A/D) and change my conversion factor but because my conversion
factor was a two-digit number, all I could get was a resolution of 0.08. Like
Ray said, using your formula I can now get 0.05 resolution. Thanks, Dan

Excellent, Tracy

I wasn't familiar with this operator... your approximation is within 0.01%!

One more thing I learned from this list.
