Calculation notebooks are specialized paper books with grid layouts used for math, science, and engineering. Paper has been used for writing since ancient times, and the first paper mill was invented in the 10th century. Calculation notebooks are organized and professional, and come in various sizes and colors.

Notebooks are paper books used to capture handwritten information. A calculation notebook is a paper book with special rows and columns for capturing information. This type of notebook looks like graph paper and is typically used in engineering, math, and science.
Throughout history, mankind has used writing devices to acquire information. Many historical writings have been made on caves and stones. Ancient writing on paper began many centuries ago. These documents were written on scrolls, which were created from papyrus, paper or parchment.

The use of formal paper to capture written information has been traced back to the third century in China. At that time, paper was made from the bark of trees. Paper did not replace parchment as the standard writing material until the late 10th century. At that time, the first paper mill was invented and the use of paper exploded in much of Europe.

Calculation notebook is used in most colleges and universities in multi-subject classes. The format of this notebook makes the delineation between topics easy to read and understand. Most math teachers require their students to use a graphical format notebook to define math problems.

Many mathematical algorithms and functions require a grid layout to plot the conditions or coordinates of an expression. A calculation notebook includes a grid layout on all pages. This format provides a guide for documenting extended math problems. Using the grids as guidelines the problems are represented in a clearly organized way.

Lines from a calculation notebook do not appear on a photographic copy of a document. This makes copies of this form of notebook extremely organized and professional because every calculation appears to have been written with a ruler. For this reason many scientists use this form of paper to acquire theories and other scientific data.

The spreadsheet comes in many sizes. All available notebooks typically have square lines that are four squares per inch (2.54 cm). Each page includes a header and margin area with a pre-printed page number.
These types of notebooks are available in both hardcover and softcover with thread or stitched perforations. The color of the card is typically green or white with blue or dark green graph lines. Green paper is preferred by many because it is easier to read and reduces eye strain.
