Thanks, [gold] 12Dec2018 ---- <> [gold] Here is some eTCL starter code for combined availability in calculator shell. A hospital carries three ambulances on a 24 hour basis. Ambulance a has an availability of 0.8 and a use of availability of 0.6, giving 24*.8*0.6, 11.52 hours. Ambulance b has an availability of 0.8 and a use of availability of .7, giving 24*0.8*0.7, 13.44 hours. Ambulance c has an availability of 0.8 and a use of availability of 0.5, giving 24*0.8*0.5, 9.6 hours. The combined use for the three ambulances is a)11.52 + b)13.44 + c)9.6 = 34.56 total hours. ---- ---- **Pseudocode Section** ====== # using pseudocode # possible problem instances, initialize algorithm_result = 1. check algorithm f(solution) =? initial product check_sum = a+b+c+d+e = original real estate set answers and printout with resulting values pseudocode: need test cases > small,medium, giant pseudocode: need testcases within range of expected operation. pseudocode: are there any cases too small or large to be solved? ====== ***Testcases Section*** In planning any software, it is advisable to gather a number of testcases to check the results of the program. The math for the testcases can be checked by pasting statements in the TCL console. Aside from the TCL calculator display, when one presses the report button on the calculator, one will have console show access to the capacity functions (subroutines). **** Testcase 1 **** %|table 1|printed in| tcl wiki format|% &| quantity| value| comment, if any|& &| 1:|testcase_number | |& &| 0.800 :|Availability (a) | |& &| 0.599 :|Use of Availability (a)| |& &| 0.800 :|Availability (b) | |& &| 0.699 :|Use of Availability (b)| |& &| 0.800 :|Availability (c) | |& &| 0.5 :|Use of Availability (c) | |& &| 24.0 :|optional: hours per interval (24,5*8,3*8,55*40, usually 24 ) | |& &| 11.520 :|hours (a) | |& &| 13.440 :|hours (b) | |& &| 9.600 :|hours (c) | |& &| 11.520 :|average hours per item (a+b+c)/3 | |& &| 34.560 :|answer: total hours | |& **** Testcase 2 **** %|table 2|printed in| tcl wiki format|% &| quantity| value| comment, if any|& &| 2:|testcase_number | |& &| 0.75 :|Availability (a) | |& &| 0.599 :|Use of Availability (a)| |& &| 0.699:|Availability (b) | |& &| 0.699 :|Use of Availability (b)| |& &| 0.599 :|Availability (c) | |& &| 0.699 :|Use of Availability (c) | |& &| 24.0 :|optional: hours per interval (24,5*8,3*8,55*40, usually 24 ) | |& &| 10.799 :|hours (a) | |& &| 11.759 :|hours (b) | |& &| 10.079 :|hours (c) | |& &| 10.879 :|average hours per item (a+b+c)/3 | |& &| 32.639 :|answer: total hours | |& **** Testcase 3 **** %|table 3|printed in| tcl wiki format|% &| quantity| value| comment, if any|& &| 3:|testcase_number | |& &| 0.800 :|Availability (a) | |& &| 0.5 :|Use of Availability (a)| |& &| 0.900 :|Availability (b) | |& &| 0.5 :|Use of Availability (b)| |& &| 0.900 :|Availability (c) | |& &| 0.5 :|Use of Availability (c) | |& &| 24.0 :|optional: hours per interval (24,5*8,3*8,55*40, usually 24 ) | |& &| 9.600 :|hours (a) | |& &| 10.800 :|hours (b) | |& &| 10.800 :|hours (c) | |& &| 10.4 :|average hours per item (a+b+c)/3 | |& &| 31.200 :|answer: total hours | |& ---- ***Screenshots Section*** ****figure 1.**** [Combined Availability and eTCL demo example calculator screenshot] ---- ***References:*** * Taking a Weighted Average, Dr Math, mathforum.org/dr.math, dated 03/20/2003 * google , mathforum.org/dr.math * Using Weighted Criteria to Make Decisions, Dr Math>, mathforum.org/dr.math, dated 07/18/2008 * google * [Oneliner's Pie in the Sky] * [One Liners] * [Category Algorithm] * [Babylonian Number Series and eTCL demo example calculator] * [Brahmagupta Area of Cyclic Quadrilateral and eTCL demo example calculator] * [Gauss Approximate Number of Primes and eTCL demo example calculator] **Appendix Code** ***appendix TCL programs and scripts *** ====== # pretty print from autoindent and ased editor # Combined Availability calculator V2 # written on Windows XP on eTCL # working under TCL version 8.6 # gold on TCL Club, 12Dec2018 package require Tk package require math::numtheory namespace path {::tcl::mathop ::tcl::mathfunc math::numtheory } set tcl_precision 17 frame .frame -relief flat -bg aquamarine4 pack .frame -side top -fill y -anchor center set names {{} { Availability (a) :} } lappend names { Use of Availability (a) :} lappend names { Availability (b) : } lappend names { Use of Availability (b) : } lappend names { Availability (c) :} lappend names { Use of Availability (c) : } lappend names { optional: hours per interval ( usually 24 )} lappend names { answers: total hours :} foreach i {1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8} { label .frame.label$i -text [lindex $names $i] -anchor e entry .frame.entry$i -width 35 -textvariable side$i grid .frame.label$i .frame.entry$i -sticky ew -pady 2 -padx 1 } proc about {} { set msg "Calculator for Combined Availability V2 from TCL, # gold on TCL Club, 12Dec2018 " tk_messageBox -title "About" -message $msg } proc self_help {} { set msg " Combined Availability V2 from TCL , # self help listing # problem, Combined Availability V2 # 4 givens follow. 1) Availability (a): 2) Use of Availability (a) 3) Availability (b) : 4) Use of Availability (b) 5) Availability (c) : 6) Use of Availability (c) 7) optional: hours per interval ( usually 24 ) # Recommended procedure is push testcase # and fill frame, # change first three entries etc, push solve, # and then push report. # Report allows copy and paste # from console to conventional texteditor. # For testcases, testcase number is internal # to the calculator and will not be printed # until the report button is pushed # for the current result numbers. # >>> copyright notice <<< # This posting, screenshots, and TCL source code is # copyrighted under the TCL/TK license terms. # Editorial rights and disclaimers # retained under the TCL/TK license terms # and will be defended as necessary in court.

"Combined Availability Calculator V2" ====== ---- *** Pushbutton Operation*** For the push buttons, the recommended procedure is push testcase and fill frame, change first three entries etc, push solve, and then push report. Report allows copy and paste from console. For testcases in a computer session, the eTCL calculator increments a new testcase number internally, eg. TC(1), TC(2) , TC(3) , TC(N). The testcase number is internal to the calculator and will not be printed until the report button is pushed for the current result numbers. The current result numbers will be cleared on the next solve button. The command { calculate; reportx } or { calculate ; reportx; clearx } can be added or changed to report automatically. Another wrinkle would be to print out the current text, delimiters, and numbers in a TCL wiki style table as ====== puts " %| testcase $testcase_number | value| units |comment |%" puts " &| volume| $volume| cubic meters |based on length $side1 and width $side2 |&" ====== ---- **Comments Section** <> Please place any comments here with your MONIKER and date, Thanks, [gold] 12Dec2018. <> Numerical Analysis | Toys | Calculator | Mathematics| Example| Toys and Games | Games | Application | GUI ---- <> Development | Concept| Algorithm
