Subject: using ConTeXt/LuaTeX instead of a spreadsheet program
Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2011 18:47:15 +0100	[thread overview]

Dear ConTeXt folks,


could you please share your experiences with or point me to a resource
dealing with the following issue.

I need to evaluate some physics experiments where I have some values
which got measured. I thought I could use ConTeXt with LuaTeX to do all
the calculations instead of the calculator and enter the results by hand
or a spreadsheet program.

Would I enter the values (not many) at the top of the TeX document and
refer to them in the other places? Is an extra file a better approach?


Thanks,

Paul
