 The \textbf{Spreadsheet} is used to tell LON-CAPA how to determine how  
 many points a student gets for the LON-CAPA portion of the course.   
   
 Spreadsheets are extremely flexible and powerful and can draw upon  
 nearly all aspects of the data LON-CAPA stores about a  
 student. Spreadsheets can be simple things that simply give one point  
 per completed problem to a student, or powerful things that give bonus  
 points for completing problems early or penalties for late  
 completion,, completing problems on the first try, differing values to  
 different problems or problem parts, or just about anything else you  
 could desire.  
   
   The \textbf{Spreadsheet} is used to implement complex grading policies in
   your course.  It has the flexability to implement most grading schemes and
   it provides access to all the parameters associated with the homework and
   exams in your course.  
   
   For basic information about the structure and function of the spreadsheet,
   see \textbf{Spreadsheet Hierarchy} (\ref{Spreadsheet_Hierarchy}) 
   and \textbf{Spreadsheet Layout} (\ref{Spreadsheet_Layout}).
   
   For information about what a student will see when they view the spreadsheet,
   see \textbf{Spreadsheet Student View} (\ref{Spreadsheet_Student_View}).
   
   For help creating and editing spreadsheets, see 
   \textbf{Spreadsheet Files} (\ref{Spreadsheet_Files}) and 
   \textbf{Spreadsheet Editing} (\ref{Spreadsheet_Editing}).
