If I am understanding correctly, you want to get a vector of data from the user as an input, and then process it afterwards?

Yes

User numeric data other than a single element isn't really well handled by the available controls; probably the most convenient for the user would be to use a <Table> component in which the user can edit the various columns (or rows depending on your chosen orientation). In the examples there is one on code response to user editing.

The alternative is just a text box in which user types free form data...this is possible but fraught with all the issues of bad syntax, bum characters, etc., etc., ... to handle.

Other than that, one is basically reduced to either multiple text boxes or other controls like the slider, etc., for the various elements and then put them together programmatically for the vector, or prompt in a loop. I don't think there's any really ideal solution.

I have resorted with the Foundation office staff to opening an Excel spreadsheet for them to work in, but that also has issues of getting the user to follow the rules in formatting, placing, saving the file before continuing, etc., etc., ...

I second dpb's suggestion, a UITABLE is likely a good approach.

"... a UITABLE is likely a[s] good approach.[as there is]"

You can use a table. Attached is a working example.
