I have studied rails for some time now and everywhere I look, the books teach you how to create blog like applications.
But now I would like to create an application, where you have for instance a form to choose how many calculations I want to do and a form to choose what type of calculations should they be. After that I would insert numbers into newly created forms and the app would calculate them and print the anwer.
Now I really don't see, how I can do this without putting the numbers inserted into a DB and then calculating with them, printing the answer and then deleting the DB entries. Seems like a very clumsy way doing it.
Anyone have some advice on how to approach this problem?
