VisiCalc was the first electronic spreadsheet on a microcomputer, and it helped turn the Apple II computer into a popular and widely used system.

However, some computer systems may resolve the ambiguous expression differently. For example, Microsoft Excel evaluates codice_6 as ("a"), which is opposite of normally accepted convention of top-down order of execution for exponentiation. Thus codice_7 is evaluated to 4,096 instead of 262,144. Another difference in Microsoft Excel is codice_8 which is evaluated as codice_9 instead of codice_10. For compatibility, the same behavior is observed on LibreOffice. The computational programming language MATLAB is another example of a computer
