Wavelength as used by Octane

I was using an emitter with guassian distribution and noticed that Octane uses a normalized scale for wavelength (0 to 1). Is my logic below correct concerning the conversion of TRUE wavelength to Octane normalized wavelength?

Similarly, Width has a scale from 0 to 1. Does this mean that Octane will consider the full visible spectrum with Width = 1, when performing light emission calculations?
