Scripting guidance needed

[Ian Richardson]

i Have been working with flash for some 5 months now, but haven't really

progressed too much into actionscripting, i have looked around the flashkit

sit site and some others. Sorry for the long nature of the question.


Now i am faced with a need to learn quick scenario.........


i need to build a complex calculator model via flash


the user inputs seven variable in number format, these are then taken and

calculated against 7 set values?: ie A*1, b*1 etc and so on. as shown below,

i have it working fine in excel, now need to learn how to work it into a

flash document, that i can publish and that will do the mathematics itself..


is it possible that you could point me in the right direction, as regards

tutorials, tips etc....


i need to learn fast, is it really complex...?

unit a contribute 87.5 % to the total price

Unit b contributes 12.5% to the total price




Per unit a 

> 


to produce unit 2 


> 6.2m of item1 

> 2.1m of item 2 

> 3.9m of item 3 

> 9m of item 4 

> 

> 

> Per unit b 

> 

> 6m of item 5 

> 6m of item 6 

> 6m of item 7 

> 

at the end it will then calculate



Therefore, calculation should go as follows



item 1 = a 

item 2 = b 

item 3 = c 

item 4 = d 


item 5 = e 

item 6 = f 

item 7 = g 


(((a * 6.2) + (b * 2.1) + (c*3.9) + (d *9)) * .875)+ (((e*6)+(f*6)+(g*6)) *

.125) 



Where 


a=1 

b=2 

c=3 

d=4 

e=5 

f=6 

g=7
