Hey PH family!
We're absolutely pumped to announce Calculations - a powerful new question type that is available now on Paperform.
As a self-titled nerd, calculations really excite me, because they open up so many new opportunities and crazy ways for people to use Paperform. So far, we're seeing really strong usecases for calculations in:
*Quizzes*
Have as many variables as you want, and whatever crazy logic you want. Calculations also let you work with text, there is a whole suite of functions for working with user entered text!
*Custom Quotes / Pricing*
Paperform has fantastic eCommerce features already like a "products" field and custom pricing rules, but calculations are there for when your needs get beyond the defaults.
*Custom Validation*
With a built in error function, you can use your own logic to prevent the form from being submitted!
We're only just scratching to surface of what calculations could be used for, and we can't wait to see what people will come up with.

Are there any form templates publicly available? Might make it easier to get the head around all the possibilities.
