How the calculation works
V12 calculation: requiredWidth=tableWidth+2×chairPullout; requiredLength=tableLength+2×chairPullout; orientationA=requiredWidth≤patioWidth AND requiredLength≤patioLength; orientationB=requiredWidth≤patioLength AND requiredLength≤patioWidth; fitPass=orientationA OR orientationB. This is the implementation specification for this calculator.
