Hi - I wonder if someone could help me with the oxcal code for calibrating the following:
eg 45000 +350, -280

Thanks
Fiona

Express the date as F14C which will give symmetrical errors, then use R_F14C in place of R_Date in OxCal.

Best wishes 
Andrew

Thanks Andrew,

However, I am not getting an option for asymmetry in the error. I am not sure how the code should be written?

R_F14C("date2218",0.3044788 0.2756171 0.3322016);

Many thanks – I found the previous discussion about this and Christophers spreadsheet.
