I developed a Python function to calculate closed form exact values for wind forces and wind CGs.

I use only calculus — no bar charts with 0′ to 15′, 20′ to 25′, et cetera —- a curve rather than a step function. I present derivations and examples.

I coded a PyXLL macro that builds a multi-dimension data table (MDDT).

The native Data Table provided by Excel is useful but limited to two variables.

My version is set up for 5 independent variables and an unlimited (theoretically) number of dependent variables. Five was an arbitrary choice; some limitation is required here.
