Observation Summary

Latest (f) is the incumbent theory; Updated (f′) is the candidate being evaluated.

Computation

round(cylinder_volume_m3(0.05, 0.20), 6)

Prompt Context

A cylinder has a radius of 0.05 meters and a height of 0.20 meters. What is its volume in cubic meters, rounded to 6 decimal places? Reply exactly: The volume is <value> cubic meters.

Latest Result

Error: Computation failed: name ‘cylinder_volume_m3’ is not defined

Updated Result

0.001571

Sensor Result

The volume is 0.001571 cubic meters.

Latest Loss

3.312

Updated Loss

1.516

Threshold 0.196

Score +0.782

Score measures how much the updated theory improves on the latest version. When Score exceeds Threshold, the observation succeeds and the update is promoted. See Equality Proxy for calibration details.

Reward DAG Preview

This diagram traces how reward flows backward from the successful output through the code changes that made it possible. First payout-step reward DAG for observation 16, rooted at the rewarded output. The blue node is the rewarded root, the gold node is the payout recipient group, the red nodes are the immediate upstream edit definitions, and the dotted continuation marks the remaining upstream lineage outside this cropped first-slice view.
