Is there a programming language that's better suited to testing out lots of formulas that others? I have a klik game that has a lot of long formulas, but well.. MMF makes it difficult to put in only one variable from a file, much worse to keep changing a few of them.

get a graphing/scientific calculator lol. they can do all sorts of functions and formulas, arrays/matrices, lists/coordinates, graphing. the ti series calculators (ti83 ti84 ti89 etc) have a built in BASIC language, which i used to use a lot, and that i use during my programming course tests.
I've got one of those, but I don't like remembering what A-Z stands for That and I don't know how to make it load a set of variables quickly.

I heard Perl is a good one for stuff like this, but I never used it so I wouldn't know. You could also use something like the JavaScript commandline interpreter (I like using that one for some stuff like calculations). You can do stuff like this with it:
var x = 4, y = 6;
x * y;
And it'd print the result of x*y.
EDIT: Python would work well for this purpose too:
