Ive recently been fiddling with the RPi and decided i want to use this to control my swimming pool filete rpump and the solar heating pump.
The pool pump is an easy one with someone else already having done some php to control their pool pump.

This does scheduling and controls the relays connected to the I/O ports on the RPi.
What i would like to do is have this php also control the sloar pump which would mean reading the water temperature and comparing this to the roof temperature and the users set temperature.
I can use this for the reading of the temperature,

Problem i have is that i am no programmer and really cant do the addition of reading temperatures and then turning the pump ondepending on the temperatures.
Does anyone know of an existing project around that would do this ?
