Calcpad

Programming

Calcpad uses simple programming language that is quick and easy to learn. It does not require any special programming skills, which makes it suitable for engineers without any computer programming background. You can create caluclation notes by simply writing your formulas and text, enclosed in 'quotes'. However, Calcpad is very powerful in the same time: You can define your own variables and functions, include units of measurement in equations and use numerical methods to solve advanced problems. For more information, check our online documentation or this quick language reference guide.

This is useful for structural calculations or in official documentation. You can print them directly from your browser or download them as Microsoft Word Document files (*.docx). All equations are converted to MathType objects. For even better fromatting, you can insert Html, CSS and SVG code in comments. In this way, you can add images, tables and other rich content.

Input forms

You can automatically generate data input forms, directly from you source code. All you need to do is to put question marks "?" wherever you need a value to be entered.
