A teaching tool is proposed to help beginner students of crystallography understand how crystallographic calculations work. Examples of the most important methods taught in X‐ray crystallography courses have been adapted to a one‐dimensional hypothetical structure. All calculations can be carried out in class with a scientific calculator or by using a simple spreadsheet.
