implementing table Plate 1 fig 4 on page 65

I expect that the text "ox, dog, sheep, dragon" in all element columns
must be "dog, dragon" as otherwise the ox and sheep will have two year
types at the same time.
Also the text on page 64 explains for the wood element 'the dog and
dragon years are in a friend relation'.

Dear All,

Just to let you know that Gyurme Dorje has subscribed yesterday, so
he'll certainly be able to answer some questions. For those interested,
the work on the library is advancing, even though it's far from being
useable right now (I didn't test the compilation under Windows).

Thank you,

my current implementation for the five elements is as follows:

Column WOOD
friend relationship years     dog, dragon      ( NO ox and sheep )

Column FIRE
son relationship years     ox, sheep      ( NO dog and dragon )

Column EARTH
destiny years     ox, sheep      ( NO dog and dragon )

Column IRON    
mother relationship years     dog, dragon       ( NO ox and sheep )

column WATER       
enemy relationship years      ox, sheep     ( NO dog and dragon )

if this is not good let me know.

Kees

Hello Kees,

All four animals ox, dog, dragon and sheep are included in the chart because
the earth element which they represent forms a mother, son, friend or enemy
relationship with the other elements, as indicated on p. 63. I think there's
no contradiction in these animal signs being repeated in the context of the
greater or lesser penalty, which denote the dur and bdun zur relationships
respectively.

Best wishes

Gyurme

Kees
