* | * Ability to split calculations onto multiple lines, for better readability. | ||
* | * Green sections on pages would benefit from having some kinda notice like "click a part of the equation for more details" (whenever there are 1 or more datapoints in the equation). Wiki writers shouldn't have to manually say it every time. | ||
* | * The 'from previous calculation' box could really benefit from having the numerical value in it (preferrably in the 'units wanted' of the previous calculation. Is this easy to implement? | ||
* Better graceful failure when datapoints aren't available. Just give some notice - maybe keep the equation the way it is, but put the result as 'unknown - missing data points' and put the missing datapoints as red links which show a box "data unavailable - research is unfinished" (or if that takes to long, then at least just have the datapoints as red text). | * Better error handling: Currently, syntax errors will bleed into the next calculations and produce messages that don't even make sense. | ||

* Alternative 'span'-type calculations that can fit inside tables. Should show just the result, but as a link that shows a popup with the equation {{x|should act basically the same as the popups of you currently get when clicking on datapoints - because the subpopup problem is already solved there}}. Ideally, this should load last, so you can have your summary table at the top of the page, one that depends on calculations below it. | * Alternative 'span'-type calculations that can fit inside tables.
