当丹·布里克林共同开发了VisCalc，世界上第一版电子表格的时候，也就是你们现在可能每天正在使用的微软Excel表或是谷歌表的爷爷辈，他改变了世界。加入这个软件工程师和他的计算传奇故事当中，看看他是如何探索错综复杂的第一份工作，那些关于那些白日梦和家庭作业的问题，以及这些最终如何引领他创造了这个革命性的发明。

与电子表格的发明人见个面

The electronic spreadsheet transformed business by turning tedious, error-prone calculations into instant updates at the touch of a key. Inspired by the frustration of manual homework and a daydream in a crowded Harvard classroom, the creator built VisiCalc from scratch, despite limited resources and early setbacks. When it launched in 1979 on the Apple II, it was so revolutionary that even The New York Times called it a 'religious rite.' The spreadsheet's grid design remains the standard nearly forty years later.
