How the Malta circulation licence calculator is verified
Inputs
| Input | Field | Type |
|---|---|---|
| CO₂ emissions (g/km) | co2 | number |
The formula
Each derived value below is computed by the Valem engine from the expression shown, in this order. Nothing else runs — there is no hidden code path.
| Derived value | Field | Formula (JSONata) |
|---|---|---|
| Annual licence | tax | ($c := co2; $round($c <= 100 ? 100 : $c <= 130 ? 140 : $c <= 160 ? 250 : $c <= 200 ? 400 : 600, 2)) |
Test vectors (2)
Every case is executed against this model on each build, by the Java engine and independently by a JavaScript one. A mismatch of a single cent fails the build, so the page cannot ship advertising a figure the model no longer produces.
Case 1 — C1 130 g/km
given co2 | 130 |
|---|---|
expect tax | 140 |
Case 2 — C2 180 g/km
given co2 | 180 |
|---|---|
expect tax | 400 |
