Excel is the most well known electronic spreadsheet, but it was not the first one. The first was VisiCalc, invented in 1978. After VisiCalc arrived, lots of other companies started to make their own versions of electronic spreadsheets. A really successful one was Lotus 1-2-3. It launched in 1983. Excel did not launch until 1985. It eventually overtook Lotus 1-2-3 to become the best seller. Before any of the electronic spreadsheets, people did their calculations on paper-based spreadsheets. So before people used Excel, they either used one of the other electronic spreadsheet applications or did their work on paper-based spreadsheets.
