Function | // Return zero if stored volume is zero
if (Scientific::equals([VST:m3], 0)) return 0.0;
// Return unit height if stored volume equals unit volume
if (Scientific::equals([VST:m3], [V:m3])) return [DC:m];
// Solve by Newton's rule
$x = [DC:m] / 2;
while (TRUE) {
$y = M_PI / 3 * pow([D:m] * $x / [DC:m], 2) * (3 / 2 * [DC:m] - $x) - [VST:m3];
if (Scientific::equals($y, 0)) return $x;
$x = $x - $y / (M_PI * [D:m] * [D:m] / [DC:m] * $x * (1 - $x / [DC:m]));
