Program for doing simple math problems

[Zippo]

I would like to be able to write some fairly simple programs that are mostly math based programs. You could easily use an excel spreadsheet to accomplish what I want to do, but using Autoplay looks way cooler.

I’m pretty green when it comes to knowing any code. I know a little html and I read a couple of chapters of C++ for dummies....so I have a basic understanding of how everything works but that’s it.

Having said all that....does anyone know of any sample programs based mostly on math? I don’t have much time in the coming weeks to go through the tutorials, and I want to decide if im going to buy AutoPlay or not before the evaluation version expires.

In the end the program/programs I would like to write would have about 20 input fields, then take that data and do some basic calculations and then be able to post the results to a page that can be printed.

Thanks in advance,
Brett

Are you looking for a program that will perform calculations for you or a program that will work as a math tutor where it gives you the numbers and you have to add them yourself and then compare the results? I don't quite understand from your post above.

If it is the latter, then StefanM posted a sample project that might do what you are looking to have AMS do.

RE: Program for doing simple math problems

Example:

Field A "input field" User inputs value of 2
Field b "input field" user inputs value of 2
Field c "display field/formula field" displays anwer of 4

there would be a few fields that automatically converted grams to ounces and things like that. Its actually more complex then that...but thats basically what im looking for.
