The number of reflections that satisfy the resolution limits established by _refine_ls_shell.d_res_high and _refine_ls_shell.d_res_low and the observation limit established by _reflns.observed_criterion, and that were used as the working reflections (i.e. were included in the refinement) when the refinement included the calculation of a 'free' R factor. Details of how reflections were assigned to the working and test sets are given in _reflns.R_free_details.
