What the most suitable prog language ?

[dericteong]

I'd like write a program. I'd like to know that
Which programming language suitable for following conditions:

i) Users able send data from different centres to headquarter (ex. state to state).
ii) Able to do formula calculation based on the data (ex. Average, Sum)
iii)Able to do analysis (ex. Report, graph).
iv) Data are easy to call.

um, most languages are fairly adept at handling calcluations, and most have libraries you can interface with to generate graphs and whatnot.

as for ease. well, unless it's visual basic, it's not going to be terribly easy, unless you know a language already.

Perl, for me, would be an easy language to do this in, simply 'cause I know it better than I know any other language.

have a look at python

www.python.org

it's VERY easy to use, and very powerful, i think you'll like it :)

Point i implies intranetwork connectivity, which doesn't necessarily imply a programming language (unless you wanted to construct the entire networking system from scratch).

Point iv is somewhat ambiguous, but it sounds like you want the data to be persistent? So it would have to go in a database. SQL Server 2000 works great for this.

Point ii is of no concern because functions like Average and Sum are intristic to SQL Server.

Point iii, you could either write a VB app to do it, or a much simpler idea would be to use an Excel spreadsheet.
