This description does not make sense to me.
Here are my guesses for where these numbers came from:
_10 -: -0{a
_12 -: -1{a
_13.5 -: b - +/0 1{a
16 -: 3{a
18 -: 4{a
But I can not figure out how my guesses relate to
your description.
If I understood your description properly, you might
be interested in something like:
b-+/\.&.|. a
25.5 13.5 _0.5 _16.5 _34.5
or
0 >. b-+/\.&.|. a
25.5 13.5 0 0 0
But I am not at all confident that this is what you
are looking for.
