Very odd question here, perhaps. I use twine mostly to create random generators for things but I recently thought of a way I might use it more constructively. In my job (Radiation Therapist) we have to occasionally do hand calculations that involve the use of very large tables of data; basically just rows and rows of numbers that we insert into equations as certain variables. I was wondering if there was a way to use twine to create some sort of easy interface where I could enter in some info and it would pull up the associated info.
For instance, I enter 4 cm depth, 12 cm field and it pulls the number I tagged as being the answer for 4 cm depth, 12 cm field.
I know I could do it using a complex series of passages (eg, Choose depth from a list, which leads to another list of possibilities to choose from. A flow chart sort of deal.) I'm just wondering if there's a better way
