Who can help me ???

[Cain]

I need a computer program that will do some basic math on a bunch of numbers.

I would input between 5 and possibly up to 50 numbers then this program will perform basic math, square root, square, adding, subtracting and dividing, comparing some variables to a chart, and at the end I will get one number.

Who can make this for me?? I have no idea what where, but I know that doing some basic match has got to be something that someone out there can make fairly easily.

As it is now I am sitting down with a hand held calculator, a pen and paper, and taking a LONG time to crunch these numbers...

There has GOT to be a better way !!

Help!??

ok I have never played with it but should excel be able to be set up this way?

[harpy]

I can help. You just need to implement the formulas in the attached pdf?

Beats the heck out of me....

I can try to put something together in excel. I'm basically just going to setup a bunch of formulas you listed above and go from there.

Lol, let me pose this question another way.

Can you explain what you are doing manually? Then we can automate it with a program.

Wolfram alpha is a great online calculator it can do mathmatics up until calc2(some topics further some less)

Golden, this is exactly what i was thinking. But i have no idea how to use formulas in excel. However I think this is what excel is really meant for.

I got a few of the functions Cain listed off in excel, had to zip it because the website wont accept .xls attachments. . Might have some time after work to revise / revist this spreadsheet.


Agreed on Harpy's post, let us know what you are manually doing and we can automate from there.

I know Excel, can do regular and advanced formulas, nesting statements and so on (but no macros, I suck at those).
But I don't read math very well.

If you can english out those formulars, I could get it done.


I read the first formula and it does not make any sense.

It is saying that S = the square root of S squared. So S=S
4 squared = 16
Square root of 16 = 4
So S = 4

Meh, I hate math
