Gnumeric

Gnumeric is a spreadsheet application developed for the GNOME project's office suite. It is written in the programming language C and uses the GTK+ library for its graphical user interface. The software is designed to be a free and open-source alternative to Microsoft Excel, one of the most widely used spreadsheet programs.

Gnumeric was first released in 1998 as a replacement for the previous spreadsheet application in the GNOME project, called "GnomeSpreadsheet". The new application was designed to be faster and more feature-rich than its predecessor. Since then, Gnumeric has undergone several major updates, with the latest version being released in 2020.

Gnumeric is known for its feature set, which includes support for formulas, conditional formatting, and pivot tables. It also includes a variety of chart types and formula functions. The application has a user interface similar to that of Microsoft Excel, which makes it easier for users to transition to Gnumeric from other spreadsheet programs.

Gnumeric is compatible with a number of file formats, including CSV, ODS, and XLS. It is available for several operating systems, including Linux, macOS, and Windows. The application is released under the GNU General Public License, which means that it can be freely used, modified, and distributed.

Gnumeric's development is ongoing, with new features and bug fixes being added in each new release. The software is widely used by individuals and organizations around the world, particularly in the open-source community. Its feature set and user-friendly interface make it a popular choice for users who need a spreadsheet application for personal or business use.
