Just a first vague idea for better usability now that we have two variables...
Not really sure yet if it really simplifies usability:

IS: Given listing formula like (A+B) * B * B, with B being known (e.g. 7), A unknown, you need to pre-solve the formula for given B or insert B three times

GOAL: What about just taking the formula as it is and selecting letter A range 0-9, letter B range 7 (one single value range), then pressing show button. Letters could be offered in dropdown depending on what is contained in the formula, to keep it faster than entering three times B manually.

I should take care not to destroy functions like exp, abs etc. if letters can be chosen freely instead of just x, y

Also got a user request:
[...]
ich hätte da eine Verbesserung bzw. Wunsch für den Joker.
Und zwar betrifft es die beiden Variablen x und y
Da wäre eine Erweiterung auf 6 bzw 10 Variablen cool.
Weil oft für die Berechnung Nord AB.CDE Ost FG.HIJ nötig ist.
Auch eine freie Bezeichnung der Variablen wäre Klasse, das man die gleich Bezeichnung
wie im Multi-Cache vergehen kann. Macht die Sache leichter und angenehmer 😁

Got another comment raising this issue, seems I should rank this issue higher ;)

have you

  1. considered using more than two variables (I've found it usable to support up to 20 variables even when some of them have fixed values so that it Will be easier to just write to formula and found values and then let the tool to generate values for missing variables
  2. allowing user to use different names (ie A,B,..F,X) for the missing variables for easier interpretation?
