Section 24.1 Simulations

Computer-powered simulations have a wide variety of uses. Simulations are used to train people in professions ranging from pilots to surgeons. They are used to provide entertainment in the form of managing a virtual soccer team or driving a race car. And they are used to test out scientific theories and make predictions from them.
