Labyrinth strength calculator

Ihave the day off school so in between studying *cough* labyrinthing and doing other stuff.

I propose that i try and make a VB program that you just imput the number of curiuts and the width in km/m and it does all the calculations for you!!

i think this would save time , effort and confusion in testing labyrinths.

now if i could just get the trackstick to work better..... lol
anyway 3am here and ive just finished riding another labyrinth on my bike. so Gn everyone.

Matt.

Alas, I have no skillz in that area, or I would gladly help. But yeah, I am also looking forward to any web-based version you can come up with, since I'm running a Mac...I have Wine on it so I might be able to get an exe to work, but it's sketchy sometimes.

5 circuits, 7.36 stadia
my omph strength: 6.13
flash strength: 5.8

the script rounds any data you input. i'll change that, thank you for noticing it. Smile

--edit--
the calcs:
total = ((int(circ*std/6*10))/10)

--edit--
fixed! i got a type mismatch, it works fine now, with these calcs:
total = (Math.round((circ*std/6*100))/100);
