Abstract :
Two schemes for computing reflections and transients on transmission lines are presented. The first consists of a recursive algorithm and the second uses spreadsheets. These form suitable material for an undergraduate class and have the merit of exciting the interest of undergraduates by enhancing the role of computer-assisted instruction
