Assumptions and limitations
Distance and pool length must use the same unit: metres or yards. Pace per 100 is a time, not a speed. Breaks and changing pace appear only through entered elapsed time.
The formula uses the specified units. Displayed numbers are rounded; whole packs, item counts and full time periods may also be rounded within the calculation.
