Visi-calc?  What could you possibly learn from the source?

That doesn't seem to be a definitive reply. Grid controls are a dime a dozen these days and calculating the arithment result of a sequence of operations parsed from a delimited string is even easier than invoking a grid control. It was cool in 1972, but not much of a deal today. So I ask you again, what could you learn today?
