  • Patent number: 10725896
    Abstract: A method and system generate sample data set for efficiently and accurately testing a new calculation for preparing a portion of an electronic document for users of an electronic document preparation system. The method and system receive the new calculation and gather historical use data related to previously prepared electronic documents for a large number of historical users. The method and system group the historical users into groups based on which sections of a previous version of electronic document preparation software were executed for each historical user in preparing electronic documents for the historical users. The groups are then sampled by selecting a small number of historical users from each group.

  • Publication number: 20180112088
    Abstract: A water-soluble pouch for coloring a water-based coating, such as a paint or a stucco, is disclosed. The water-soluble pouch includes first and second sheets of water-soluble material that are plastically deformed and at least partially joined together such that interior surfaces of the first and second sheets cooperate to define at least one interior chamber. The first and second sheets are at least partially joined together by way of a bonding process. One or more pigments are contained within the at least one interior chamber. The water-soluble pouch is configured to dissolve and release the one or more pigments into the water-based coating when mixed with the water-based coating for at least a predetermined period of time. A method for coloring a water-based coating is also disclosed.
