I've got these giant tables I need to use for calculations in my work, but after a day of using them, it's easy to start fucking up and accidently using a number higher or lower because you slipped from one column to the other.

I was looking for a way to automate this, where I can just type in the numbers and it draws from all the tables to get the right number. What do you think the best way to do this is? I'm not tech savvy outside my limited knowledge linked to my profession so I'm not sure how to go about this.

I mean, I can run a linear accelerator but I don't often deal with paperwork.

Alright, I'll look into excel.

Ideally, what you'd want is the equations generating these numbers, but manual entry is fine. I've used similar tables for thermodynamics before and we usually did linear interpolation on values that didn't fall on a grid intersection.

But good god these fuckers are annoying.

Yes, you should definitely be using some kind of program to do this for you. I hate to think of the man-hours wasted looking up numbers when you could be doing radiation-therapy shit.

Regarding tools, any programming language could do it, but since you're asking, yeah a spreadsheet program is probably ideal
