Need help making a grid...

I need to make a grid (with .5 by .5 inch squares) for a math class. Id rather make on the computer than by hand since it would be way faster and more accurate.

Can anybody help?
 
i dunno anyway to do i tautomatically.

use a paint program draw a few lines then copy and past and repeat, shouldn't take too many iterations before you get the whole page covered
 
Or you can open something like WordPad and place a dot at the beginning of the line, then every 1/2 inch. Do that for the entire line, then copy the entire line, hit enter, and paste, enter, paste, enter, paste --until the entire page is done with dots. Then print it out and go over it with a ruler and a pencil. 🙂
 
Create a table in Word, set the row height and column height to .5 inches, make as many rows and columns as you need to, and print it out.

or do it in excel. Make the row height and column width both .5, set a black "grid" border around the cells, and print.
