Compounding doesn't work that way. 10% interest compounded 10 times does not mean add 10% 10 times. It means add 10/10 = 1% 10 times, and this is how SEIV and (presumably) SEV calculate population growth.

Sorry, but I'll have to let someone else answer your questions.
:-) Yes, I know that's the way it is supposed to work. It seemed like SEIV was using the whole 10% each turn tho...or something close to it. Either way, it still makes waaay too many babies!

Thanks for the correction
(Thank you sir! May i have another?)
