Abstract

A computer is arranged to operate in either a table mode, or a program language mode that can be selected during the table mode by appropriate switching to form a table. In the program language mode, a program is written in suitable language and is run. In the table mode, a table is formed by entering table format data and table item data, without program writing. When the table mode is selected, a table managing section requests a program language-managing section to supply item data obtained by running the program, and the supplied item data is used to complete the table.
