Title: Free bit coin calculator
Post by: BitStick on February 08, 2013, 05:57:19 AM
I wrote this so people can see how much (or little) you get paid for doing jobs

*note* its written using the free version of microsoft visual studio so you probably need .Net Framework installed. Its part of windows standard update, if its not installed just start windows update and look in optional installs.

Its just a very very simple program, based on $20 a bitcoin it converts your pay into a $ value and tells you how many times you need to do that job to earn $1 worth of bitcoin

eg 0.000096  =  $0.00192  and repeat job 520 times for $1

If you have visual studio and you want to compile it yourself it only takes a minute to do.

Start a new windows form
add one button
two textboxes
one listbox

set the text in listbox1 to "20"
or add a line in form startup "listbox1.text="20"

add this code to the button
Code:
        ListBox1.Items.Clear()

        Dim BitCoinValue As Double = TextBox1.Text
        Dim JobPay As Double = TextBox2.Text
        Dim JobValue As Double = BitCoinValue / (1 / JobPay)
        ListBox1.Items.Add("$" + CDec(JobValue).ToString)
        Dim JobsPerHour As Double = 1 / JobValue
        JobsPerHour = Int(JobsPerHour)
        ListBox1.Items.Add("")
        ListBox1.Items.Add("Do this job " + JobsPerHour.ToString + " times to earn $1")

I'll try to implement difficulty in this and make it able to do all kinds of calculations.
