Data lines to define properties as a function of independent variables, temperature, and/or field variables

First line

  1. First property.

  2. Second property or first independent variable, temperature, or field variable.

  3. Etc., up to 8 data line items.

Subsequent lines (only needed if the sum of the entries for the PROPERTIES and INDEPENDENT VARIABLES parameters on the PROPERTY TABLE TYPE option and the TEMPERATURE and DEPENDENCIES parameters on the PROPERTY TABLE option is greater than eight)
  1. Property, independent variable, temperature, or field variable.
  2. Etc., up to 8 data line items.

Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessary to define properties as a function of independent variables, temperature, and other predefined field variables.
