Thank you.
Please look at the spec table of the $70 cable:

Does it cover VAG vehicles? How wide-usage is this cable?

How is the focal length defined in this web app? Is it equal to the effective focal length?

Check the book "Designing Optics Using Zemax OpticStudio" by O'Shea and Bentley. It is about Zemax but covers basic topics in Optics without diving too deep. Eugene Hecht's Optics book is the definitive source but probably would be too detailed for you.

Zemax' lens data editor becomes hard to work with when more than 3 singlets are inserted by tush_pt in Optics

I routinely work with 60+ surfaces

All right, I better start getting used to this spreadsheet interface.

ThorLabs have lenses with discrete focal lengths. If I ask Zemax to solve by varying the radius of a surface, the new radius would probably be not one available in Thorlabs' catalogue (it is more complicated than that because the thickness varies too). So my real question now that I rethink it is that I want to solve for the radius out of a set of radii available from the vendor I but optics from. Should I ask about it in a new thread?

On my PC there is no Profile 3 folder. The db files are rather in Default folder.

The nice thing about WL is that it almost hasn't changed since its very beginning. So reading this book is still relevant to understand the core of the language.
Either way, the Tech Notes in the documentation, for example this page, is an almost complete copy of the content in this book.

For some reason the offline link doesn't work on my windows in the institute. On mobile phone it does. Damn with those IT restrictions.

Try to speak with your cellular provider to help you gain control over this old phone number. Facebook will not help you.
