That'd be how I'd do it too. But I suppose you're an engineer or physicist?
Interestingly, I used to do it the way Seamus said. That was how I was thought. It was quickly stamped out of me in Uni though.

Ah ye see, I know how to do it properly now. Just crazy that so many Irish people have been taught completely the wrong method. I still have to catch myself sometimes doing it the wrong way. such is the power of what you learn at an early age.
