Ok, here is the exp formula tester as I promised. It is pretty small,
only 300 lines, and it is pretty simple. This program runs separate from
the mud, just compile it, and run it. Here are a couple random notes:
The program was made on FreeBSD, but I am hoping it will work on all
systems. If you have to make changes to have the program work, please let
me know so I can make it more portable.
The program uses stuff from <math.h> so when you compile it, at least in
FreeBSD, you need to use the -lm argument. Again, if you need to mke
changes to get it to work on your system, please let me know what they
are.
If you have any suggestions, problems, bug reports, enhancment
possibilities, or any comments, please contact me. (In other words, if
you have any chnages at all, no matter how small, that might be good,
please let me know.)
If you add any formulas to this program, could you please send it to me.
That way I can add it to the next version.(If there is one)
Thanks.
