Description
This job should be easy for somebody who knows what they are doing.We need a Software interface to be used on the desktop.
The program will allow me to enter words both variables and constants into the boxes in the software, and i click a 'generate' button, and it displays the outcome of every single combination of the words entered (see diagrams and below example).
A program is required where i,
1) Insert word values into a series of boxes(my own), (see diagrams Sketch 4, and 6 attached)
2) Press a PROCESS button on the software
3) It processes the values inserted, to an output
4) The output is to be VIEWED + saved on a separate sheet/page of the software (see Diagram attached-Output diagram)
5) Any duplicate outputs should be highlighted
6) The columns should be able to be Moved/dragged left and right using the drop and drag function with the mouse (allowing changes in positions for constants + variables)
What I require is best to be explained with a Diagram (see the attached 3 diagrams)
3 DIAGRAMS ATTACHED (please view them):
(3 diagrams attached)=

-Software_Sketch 6_ACTUAL_JPEG,

Diagram 1= the below example (for simplicity)
Diagram 2= what we actually require.
JOB Description
---------------
I need a Software program made (similar to a Microsoft calculator) where you enter values and it progresses to give the combinations.
For example let’s say you 4 Variables
a) 4 different Boys names
-Adam
-David
-Garry
-Paul
b) 3 Shirt colours
-Small
-Medium
-Large
c) 2 different locations
-Home
-College
-Work
d) 7 Days of the week
-Monday
-Tuesday
-Wednasday
-Thursday
-Friday
-Saturday
-Sunday
===================================================
Here's a List of combinations (some of them)
Now let’s see all the combinations possible
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Monday
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Tuesday
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Wednasday
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Thursday
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Friday
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Saturday
Adam can wear a small shirt at Home on a Sunday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Monday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Tuesday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Wednasday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Thursday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Friday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Saturday
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Sunday
Adam can wear a Large shirt at College on a Monday
...
...etc
Adam can wear a Small shirt at work on a Monday
...
...etc
Adam can wear a medium shirt at work on a Monday
...
...etc
Adam can wear a Large shirt at work on a Monday
etc...... there are Loads of combinations.
===================================================
The total amount of combinations available will be =
[4 names] x [3 Colours] x [3 Locations] x [7 Days] =252 combinations
4 x 3 x 3 x 7 = 280...... Writing 252 Combinations will take forever, so we need a software where you enter the
4 variables (name - Shirt size - Location - Day) - and it Generates all the possibilities.
OUR REQUIRED SOFTWARE TASK
--------------------------
(I used the above for an example..... of 4x3x3x7 - but the actual values we have are 5x5x7x7x2x11 = 26950 combinations.
We need a software application which does these following tasks + these following details:
1) we can enter them values (name, shirt size, location, day) in boxes (like a calculator form box)
2) The software will generate these valuables and Process them to make All the calculations
3) List all the combinations in a list
- So to List all 26950 combination sentences such as:
Adam can wear a Medium shirt at College on a Monday- 26950 Times (as there are 26950 combinations, we need them all listed)
after the software has processed + calculated Every possibility
4) With the Wording in the combinations different colours (to what we assign them)
=Colours assigned by us assigning the colour.
5) a, b, c, d, are 4 Separate Boxes in the software (or 4 separate columns) - where I enter the values.
6) Any duplicate output sentences should be highlighted
6) The columns should be able to be Moved/dragged left and right using the drop and drag function with the mouse (allowing changes in positions for constants + variables)
PLEASE SEE ATTACHED 3 DIAGRAMS (to make it seem easier):
Software_Sketch 4_EXAMPLE_JPEG,
Software_Sketch 6_ACTUAL_JPEG,
Software sketch_OUTPUT_REQUIRED JPEG
