Using the opportunities of spreadsheets for computer simulation

Abstract

The article examines the effectiveness of using table processors in computer modeling. The authors consider the possibilities provided by modern spreadsheet processors, particularly their power and flexibility, as a tool for creating and using various models. The article examines specific cases of using spreadsheets in educational activities, particularly during the study of mathematics and informatics in secondary education. It is noted how this approach can facilitate the process of modeling and working with data, making them more accessible and understandable for a wide range of users. The advantages and limitations of using spreadsheet processors for computer simulations are analyzed to provide a comprehensive overview of their potential in this context.
