Sounds like the "faulty" safety valve was doing its job. :-)

I shoved it out to a nice round 100, improved the plot, added the centre and

focus. Also you can see the data in columns J and K.
If you know how to use Excel you can unhide the columns, but I fail to
see how a thousand entries in a column would be useful. It can be done
but it would make the program 10 times larger.

That would be outside the purview of Kepler's equal areas in equal
times law.
Key here is that because the time between points is always
the same, the distance between points is a measure of velocity.
Because the velocity of light HAS to be source dependent (despite
the crank Einstein's claims to the contrary) and Algol CANNOT be
an eclipsing binary (despite the 18-year-old Goodricke's theory)
(see http://www.androcles01.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Algol/Algol.htm )
the light curve of Algol is generated by Copernicus.exe by a star
in orbit with a large body, in close agreement with
"HD 189733 may not seem to be remarkable, but it is known to have at least
one hot, jupiter-sized planet orbiting very close, with an impressively
short period of 2.2 days.
(see http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap080321.html )
Thus the extent to which Einstein's crackpottery has led the world
astray is truly astronomical.
