In SuperMemo, the length of the first interval is computed from the forgetting curve plotted in the course of repetitions.
Indeed SuperMemo has been conceived in such a was so as to make it easier to formulate knowledge in a structured way (topics) and later learn it in a way typical for SuperMemo (items).
In SuperMemo, if the student chooses the retention of 95%, the typical value of the first interval falls in the range 2-5 days depending on the student and the difficulty of the learned material.
