Thanks Martin!
This is exactly the book i have right now but experts opinions are always a
good idea! :-)
Abstracting calculations in a method would mean one call from each other
method right? I would prefer to have done just once (maybe in the constrcutor?)
but...
Thanks again..

... or abstract it into a method. It will help a lot if you learn the
basics of OO programming before tackling a plugin.
