To generate a sinewave with period 20 in Excel,
put the numbers 0 thru 75 in column A, then
in cell B1 put this expression
   =SIN(3.1415926*A1/20)

Now copy cell B1 and paste it into B2 thru B76.  Done.
You have "written a computer program" to generate
a sinewave.  Congratulations.

A tiny variation gets you a triangle wave.
