Usage: This program is designed to calculate the area and the approximate perimeter of an ellipse. Because calculating the actual area requires advanced mathematics, it cannot be done in this program. The higher the values, the less accurate they become. However, this program is still very easy to use. Just enter both radii! The "lock data" feature prevents users from accidentally editing the calculated data (you can still copy the values). Formulas used: Area of ellipse with radii a and b: πab Approximate perimeter: π ((3a + 3b) - sqrt((a + 3b)(b+3a))) Updates for v1.2: The interface has been greatly improved, and the code has been condensed. I've also removed the annoying message box that appears each time you calculate the data! Finally, I've fixed the bug that caused incorrect values to be displayed. |
