    I've been meaning to ask, how does one calculate a max_gradient? I've
been just guessing and testing. But it seems that some folk have specific
values that they use.

    In other words, mine always end up as round numbers or simple divisions
(2.5, 10, 3.25) but I have seen other people who use things like 12.23937
which leads me to think that they did some sort of calculation.
