I was thinking of adding a math worksheet generator to my website. I'd want users/teachers to be able to enter some basic information about the types of math problems they want, and then be able to generate a pdf document that they can print out. An example of the kind of thing I'd like (from a competitor's website): here. I'd want the layout/formatting of the actual pdf to be a little fancier, but that's basically what I want the site to be able to do. Question 1 - How much do you think this kind of programming would cost? Question 2- What kind of programmer would I be looking for? (programming language/type) Question 3 - Where do I turn to find such a programmer? Question 4 - Would this be hard to "install" on my site. I'm pretty good with my static html, but I have very little experience installing applications. Thanks in advance for your answers to my questions.
If I was more familiar with Fpdf (I cant post links yet, so google fpdf, it should be the first result) I would make it for you, but I havent played with it that much. Fpdf turns webcode into a pdf. Sorry I cant make it for you, but i hope that helps. Barry
Thanks Barry. I'm not familiar with fpdf, but I'll do some googling and find out more about it. Could randomly-generated math problems be created w fpdf? Thanks.
ya fpdf can be used to make random math problems, it uses php to generate the pdf, so you can make the random questions in php and it would be there in the pdf
Awesome-- Do you (or anyone) know how much it might cost to have someone program the php for my site? I know cost is variable in every instance...but a ballpark figure? And where I could turn to find such a person? Thanks. +1 rep for owt200x for your help.
