"It depends."
What are your constraints? What are your requirements? How much
data are we talking about? Is it a CPU bound application? How
complex are the calculations? How frequently and in what ways will
they change? Who will change them? What demands are there on
timeliness, speed, accuracy, robustness, audit trail and security?
How will the application be run? 24/7? Batch? Manually?
Nice question, isn't it? "I have some data and I need to make some
calculation. How to?"
This reminds me of an old cartoon: a program manager bustles past
serried ranks of programmers saying, "You guys start coding; I'll go see
what they want."
