Basically, it breaks down the mathematical expression into a tree of sub-expressions. It then starts at the bottom and calculates each result on the way up. The final result at the top is the answer. I don't know where in the interface I'd lay this out, or even how to present this for more complex calculations.</p> <p>As far as locking equations to only allow numerical input, this is something I've thought about myself. I don't want to clutter the interface with yet another button, but I'll see if I can make this work in some other context.</p> pubDate Wed, 20 Oct 2010 16:54:51 +0000 dc:creator Brad Larson guid false comment 831 at http://www.sunsetlakesoftware.com
