It achieves practical "hands-on" exposure to operating, application and end-user programs. An accounting program, "Medlin", and a spreadsheet program, "Aseasy", are provided in the book so that readers who do not have access to other similar applications and end-user programs can obtain practical knowledge of the operation of such programs. Solutions to excercises set are contained in the "Aseasy" subdirectory of the floppy diskette supplied with the book. This is intended to give the reader a means of comparing the written solution with an electronic spreadsheet layout indicating the various formulae used.
