Table- or Lookup-Functions usually map some variable (usually normalized as a dimensionless input) onto a real number by either providing a parametric funcion or a table of values which is then used for interpolation. Typically lookup functions are nonlinear functions and introduce nonlinearity to dynamic models [3, Ch. 14].
The parametric lookup functions presented in this package are to a great part inspired by an article written by Khalid Saeed and Arit Irmaridiris [4]. They either directly use the proposed functional form from that article or were slightly modified by the author of the Business Simulation Library using Wolfram Mathematica.
