Inside <calculateprofile> follow statements for an ascent profile to be calculated.
The <calculateprofile> element stands inside the <tablegeneration> section only once (if given). Inside <tablegeneration> also the following two elements can appear: <calculatebottomtimetable> (calculation of "maximum bottom time" tables), and <calculatetable> (for the generation of decompression tables) respectively.
The only element within <calculateprofile> is <profile> (which can be repeated any times).
