So long long ago I made a calculator on my graphing calculator that would take the herbs I had and figure out if I had enough to meet my goal.

Looking at one of the wiki's summoning calcs it has one that you put in your charms and shows what you should make and how much xp youll be getting.

So I was thinking of trying to make a herblore varient that does the same with herbs. Sadly I know nothing of coding so figured asking where to start wouldnt hurt.

Hey there,

You mention long, long ago - does your proof of concept still function? If not, I'd start there as getting the math right is a fundamental part of developing a calculator.

From there, check out
https://runescape.wiki/w/Help:Editing#Calculators
as that should give some insight into how to go about calculator creation.

The one I made then asked your xp and goal xp, figured out what herbs and potions you could use and which were best for xp, then asked what you had of each type. It was a bunch of if/then stuff I had to hard code with xp values. So should work but that calc went missing a decade ago.
