Some nontrivial VBA Examples (untilto therebe is a separate VBA categorymoved).
 
In MS Office program (Word, Excel, Access...): open the Visual Basic window. Paste the code in a module. Execute it by typing a suitable command in the Immediate Window. Output will be directed to the Immediate Window unless stated otherwise...

==[[Floyd-Warshall algorithm]]==
[[File:FloydGraph.png|thumb|250px|Graph used in this and Dijkstra's algorithm]]
The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floyd-Warshall_algorithm Floyd algorithm or Floyd-Warshall algorithm] finds the shortest path between all pairs of nodes in a weighted, directed graph. It is an example of dynamic programming.
 
Usage: fill in the number of nodes (n) and the non-zero edge distances or costs in sub Floyd or in sub FloydWithPaths.
Then run "Floyd" or "FloydWithPaths".
