A paper graph sheet (or lined paper, etc) could be used as a spreadsheet. But writing and calculating the data would have to be done manually - a very time-consuming and laborious method, prone to mistakes. A computerised spreadsheet means that the data is written once, and can be used to make reports, etc, many times - very quick and less prone to mistakes. Also, any added data is automatically recalculated and the spreadsheet updated very quickly.
