Hey all,

I'm working on some mathematical formulas and I need to have a way to produce them into software. Basically, what i need is to be able to have changing numbers stream into a database and I want some sort of code that will automatically calculate this algorithm and give me the final result after it has gone through all possibilities. I'm not exactly sure how to explain the formula so that it makes sense to you but if you're looking at an excel spreadsheet, i would like A1 to be a constant and multiply it by A2, A3, A4, A5 etc. but once it has multiplied by that it would multiply by a whole new pattern. So if it multiplies by A2, then instead of A3 or A4 it would then switch to B1, B2, etc. and so on. Now in this string I want it to go through 3 calculations or 10 calculations and see the results of every possible calculation possible. I'm not sure if this is making any sense. I can feel this on the tip of my brain and I don't quite know how to explain it. So please feel free to ask

That's the thing though Psych. I'm not in school. I don't even do programming. I need someone that knows programming to help me do this. Is this only for students? Cause I'm an adviser at a University

Well not it's not only for student, it's for anyone who needs programming help. We have a policy here to not give out source code without the member first showing the code they have written to solve their problem.

Let me re-read your original post and see if theres a way I can help smile.gif

You could declare each "cell" to part of an array and have it multiply each item sequentially, then loop through it again using the next number, so and so forth until all possible calculations have been determined. Depending on what interfacing the program needs this could be done easily in C/C++

So Kya, if I had information streaming into the program (C/C++) which I have no clue how to do, it would constantly give me the up to date calculations? I will be happy to go into more detail (privately). I don't know if I'm on the brink of something or not, but I'm hoping I am. If you are interested in giving me a rate I'd be happy to consider it. Unfortunately, I am not a programmer and I had no idea where to start in looking for someone to help me get this done.

Yeah, I've not had a very good response from there, but the poster said they didn't know of any. I figured the poser could use their own judgment.
