[Squeakland] Displaying a calculation in a text box

[Andreas Raab]

Hi Phil,

The easiest way to do this is to make a ticking script which computes the
computed value and then have a readout for this value. For example:

<ticking>
    foo's result <- foo's length * foo's width

and then the "result" readout will show the resulting value.

Cheers,
  - Andreas

> I'm working on a project which will generate the area of a given geometric
figure. There are a number of approaches I'm considering, however, I'm stuck
when it comes to displaying a given calculation. For example, if I use
variables for length and width, I want to be able to display the results of
lengthXwidth.
