programming with excel

[19683]

How do you generate codes using excel?

Use the if statement. The rest is trial and error. (You don't even need the if statement!)
Also try turning on iterative calculations. This is very inconsistent though.
This forum doesn't allow .xlsx attachments though, so I can't attach any of the stuff I've made.
Andy, could you try allowing .xlsx?

You can do programming with excel? Well don't that beat all, I gotta try that out.
19683 (it would be much easier to just call you numbers), you can just upload your stuff into a website like, say, mediafire I believe.

Nah, without the VBA it's not easy to do 3+d arrays. In fact even control structure isn't straightforward - It's more like a Turing machine or cellular automaton than a programming language.

Oh and mediafire isn't very safe sometimes, even if you click the right link. I'd recommend describing the things in the cells, or waiting for Andy to enable .xlsx.

Added! (I think)

Yep, it works! Here's one of mine:

Excel Prime Factorizer.xlsx

First, enable editing. If it errors with "circular reference", try closing any other excel spreadsheets. To use it, set A1 to the number to the number to be factored, and set B1 to 0, then 1. Hold F9, and wait.

Seems like it feels a lot like some of them first computers.
Do want.
