Compound nomograph example 1

In this example we construct compound nomograph of equation

[math]\frac{A+B}{E}=\frac{F}{CD} \,[/math]

just as an example. The equation is split into three equations that each are blocks:

[math]A+B=R_1 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,[/math] (type 1)

[math]CD=R_2 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,[/math] (type 2)

[math]\frac{R_1}{E}= \frac{F}{R_2} \,\,\,\,\,\,\,[/math] (type 4)

It is iterative process in practice with PyNomo to construct compound nomograps. One should generate nomographs and correct for example block mirroring and axis tick sides, levels and title positions. The following is an example of result after some ten iterations. Note the 'tag' key that defines how blocks aling with respect to each other. User has to take care that aligned scalings are really equal between blocks. Best practice may be to print in early iterations the scalings and check they are equal.
