: Transparent to the public as in they don't get to see the code? If you plan on distributing the scripts, that's probably a non-starter. It was only a week or so ago on this forum where I demonstrated a very easy way of turning Perl 5 bytecode back into readable Perl, so that option is out. See the compiling Perl thread for my thoughts on achieving code security through compilation. If you just want to run the calculators as CGI scripts and offer a web based interface, then people can't see the Perl code itself, so that could be one way to do it.

Yes Jonathan, interested parties will need to sign a mutual non-disclosure agreement.
