- W1567231217 abstract "In 1979, when the first edition of Practical Astronomy with your Calculator was published, very few people had access to a computer. Although home computers were beginning to appear in the high street, they were not the commonplace household accessory we see today. Calculations were made using a calculator, the sophistication of which ranged from the simple four-function device to the versatile programmable reverse-Polish scientific machine. You may already own a calculator that would be suitable for the recipes given here, but you might also own a computer and wish to make the calculations using that instead. If you are good at programming, you could consider using the methods described in this book as a basis for writing your own astronomical software. But most of us don't want to embark on such a project. How then can we use our computers to make astronomical calculations? One answer is to use a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft's Excel , or OpenOffice Calc . The latter is available at no cost, and described as fully compatible with the former, so if you do not already own a commercial spreadsheet program, then Calc might be a good way to go. Once you have loaded the software on to your machine, open the spreadsheet program. The screen display should then look something like Figure I. (Here and throughout the book, toolbars, sidebars and many other features have been removed from the spreadsheet views.)" @default.
