This new function has the property that {{nowrap|F<sub>s</sub>(''x'') {{=}} F<sub>s</sub>(0) − E<sub>s</sub>(''x'')}}, so that all we have done is flip the sign of E<sub>s</sub>(''x'') and offset it vertically. This now increases to a maximum value for low errors, rather than declining to a minimum.

Of more interest is the fact that it is a known mathematical function.
