More or less :) The custom board size dialog gave those numbers as upper limits.

Minesweeper needs empty cells on each new board. Windows gives a maximum number of mines you can have on any given board size, those are the numbers I gave above.

I'm programming a minesweeper game, and I'm trying to come up with an equation to determine the maximum number of mines a board can have dependent on the amount of rows and columns given. I pulled some numbers from the Windows 7 version, but I'm not sure how to derive an equation from them...
