The Schema2 Tutorial Guide
for RISC OS computers
Schema2 for RISC OS is a highly extensible spreadsheet application and you
can use it to do so much more than the usual point-click-type data manipulation. In this book, Norman Lawrence begins by taking you through
the basics - formatting data, formulae and functions including matrix operations and plotting graphs, along with handling Microsoft(TM) Excel
files.
Schema2's real power lies in its macros which are written in a BBC
Basic-like language. Numerous examples are provided, starting with drawing interactive and passive graphics. Once you have mastered macros you will realise that you're extending the Schema2 software how Schema2 is at home
in many fields to be at home in many fields - business, engineering,
commerce and teaching to name a few. An entire chapter is devoted to a
design application to help students and the appendices form a concise
reference for the styles, effects, functions and macros in Schema2 for
RISC OS.
The Schema2 Tutorial Guide is a wire-bound A5 printed book. You can
download a sample in PDF format and buy a copy from www.dragdrop.co.uk at
the special introductory price of just GBP12.50 (plus postage). This offer
