I think you have the best response to this. I was trying to guess what was
intended from what was written. I guessed that maybe the"input" is really
process error? And then what are those "#" operators? I guess these are
alphabetic characters, not operators?
One good way to answer the OPs question is a simulation. Put some random
numbers in and plot the result.
