Red face Software advice

Hello everybody,
A few weeks back I was planning on buying some new eyepieces, so I did some research and found that I needed some simple equations to find out the Actual field of view and magnification.
(the equations are found here)

This is not a problem.
But doing the some equation's 10 times, for 10 different eyepieces to find out which eyepiece would best suit my telescope really bugged me.
So I decided to make a program to do all of the calculations for me .

I am still designing it and I would like some advice/help/ideas.
So far, it can calculate the magnification, FOV and focal ratio.

Please comment with any ideas, request's, anything, tell me if this would be useful or if I am just wasting my time
Thanks


P.S if there is already a program out there that does this sort of thing, please post a link to it
