Description
Summary:A new method is presented for simulating linear control systems using modern spreadsheet programs. The method is characterized by its flexibility, simplicity, and availability. It was verified for various cases, and examples were given for illustration. It is particularly useful for educational exercises that require calculations to be repeated with different parameters and values.
