This asynchronous buffer was written in Python and is named Suzanne, from the novel Un barra...

The order in which the statements are executed depends upon the dependencies between them. For example, if cell A1 references the value of B1, then B1 must be evaluated first. This provides us with the basic spreadsheet model that has proven so valuable for ad-hoc investigation of numerical models. Figure 2. The basic steps Resolver One uses to evaluate cell formulae.
