Zamphire Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 I'd like to make a calculator for use in my business. We are a copy service that charges rates per page. I'd like to make a small little program where I can input the page count and it will give me the amount to charge my customers. Our rates are as follows: $1 for every page up to 25 pages than $0.50 for every page thereafter. I know it shouldn't be much harder than making a simple algorithm but I'm not exactly the best at this kind of thing. Anyone out there that can help me?
hannes08 Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) I should let you try by yourself, but this should do what you want: Global $iCharge, $iPages $iPages = InputBox("Amount of Pages?") If $iPages <=25 Then $iCharge = $iPages Else $iCharge = ($iPages - 25) * 0.5 + 25 EndIf MsgBox(0,"Charge:",$iCharge & "$") Edited April 13, 2012 by hannes08 Regards,Hannes[spoiler]If you can't convince them, confuse them![/spoiler]
Zedna Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) I suggest to use Koda for GUI designFunction for calculation is then very simple... Edited April 13, 2012 by Zedna Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search

Zamphire Posted April 13, 2012 Author Posted April 13, 2012 Wow, Koda almost made the GUI too easy. Now let me figure out how to get it to work.
Zedna Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Wow, Koda almost made the GUI too easy. Now let me figure out how to get it to work.Just make your desired GUI design in Koda then press F10 (Run form)and it will generate AU3 code for you.Then add program logic into that "empty" GUI script ...I created something for you to start in my previous post.

Zedna Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Thank you very much.I'm glad I could help on useful script.When you finish it post here your final script so also others can see the result ... Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search
Zedna Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) Just hint for you: You can store some constants that can change in the future in INI file. So in future when number of pages/charge per page changes then you will just edit your (text) INI file without need of recompiling of program. In this case INI file could be something like this (calculator.ini): [Settings] PagesCost1=25 Cost1=1 Cost2=0.5 Look into helpfile at function IniRead how to use INI files. EDIT: Here is solution using INI file without any hardcoded numbers in script expandcollapse popup#include <EditConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> Global $ini_PagesCost1, $ini_Cost1, $ini_Cost2 $ini = 'calculator.ini' $ini_PagesCost1 = IniRead($ini, 'Settings', 'PagesCost1', '25') $ini_Cost1 = IniRead($ini, 'Settings', 'Cost1', '1') $ini_Cost2 = IniRead($ini, 'Settings', 'Cost2', '0.5') $Form1 = GUICreate("Calculator", 312, 108, 192, 114) $Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Pages:", 72, 24, 37, 17) $Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 112, 24, 121, 21) $Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Charge:", 72, 56, 38, 17) $Input2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 112, 56, 121, 21) ;GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE) GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x00ff00) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "WM_COMMAND") While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit EndSwitch WEnd Func GetCharge($iPages) Local $iCharge If $iPages <= $ini_PagesCost1 Then $iCharge = $iPages * $ini_Cost1 Else $iCharge = $ini_PagesCost1 * $ini_Cost1 + ($iPages - $ini_PagesCost1) * $ini_Cost2 EndIf Return $iCharge & " $" EndFunc Func WM_COMMAND($hWnd, $msg, $wParam, $lParam) Local $nNotifyCode = BitShift($wParam, 16) Local $nID = BitAND($wParam, 0xFFFF) If $nID = $Input1 And $nNotifyCode = $EN_CHANGE Then $pages = GUICtrlRead($Input1) $charge = GetCharge($pages) GUICtrlSetData($Input2, $charge) EndIf Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG EndFunc Edited April 13, 2012 by Zedna Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search
Zedna Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) Another idea for improvement: You can show in another edits also: - values from INI file (for example in statusbar) - number of pages for cost1 and summary cost of all pages for cost1 - number of pages for cost2 and summary cost of all pages for cost2 Edited April 13, 2012 by Zedna Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search
