spreadsheet
含义: A computer application or document that organises data into rows and columns, enabling calculation, analysis, and presentation of numerical and textual information.
The spreadsheet revolutionised business computing in the 1980s with the arrival of Lotus 1-2-3 and later Microsoft Excel. It remains the default tool for financial modelling, budgeting, data analysis, and record-keeping across virtually all industries. In professional contexts, 'spreadsheet risk' refers to the danger of errors in critical financial models — several high-profile losses have been attributed to spreadsheet mistakes. The term can also refer to the underlying grid of cells itself. Common collocations include 'spreadsheet model,' 'spreadsheet error,' and 'populate a spreadsheet.'
