Intro
As an electrial engineer I spent a lot of time using and creating excel based calculators. The problem I have is when I or other people make minor changes we rarely ever syncronize our updatse. Eventually we just redesign the calculators from scratch. To try and reduce time I wanted to create them in javascript on a webpage. That way I know I can access it anywhere and update it on any pc.

function Compute1(form) {
with(Math) { var Precision= 0; var Precision= 0;
var Vin= Number(form.Vin.value); var Vled= Number(form.Vled.value); var Iled= Number(form.Iled.value);
Rled= (Vin-Vled)/(Iled/1000);
Wresistor= (Vin-Vled)*(Iled/1000);
if(Rled<0) { alert("the numbers you entered don't make sense!!!"); }
form.Rled.value= Rled.toFixed(Precision); Precision= 3; form.Wresistor.value= Wresistor.toFixed(Precision); }
