Hello Avi,

when the user has entered values into the text boxes...

(1) ... get the entered string,
(2) use hash-ref to translate the strings into the numerical charges,
(3) iterate through the multiplication factors in two nested loops,
    multiplying the charges with the factors and doing whatever else
    needs to be done ;-)

I really don't see where the problem is :-(

Ciao,
Thomas
