(0)
Developing a computer model of the solar system with a high-level computer language (94 pages). The author has experience with various programming languages, from Basic and C++ to Java (Script). In his opinion, one of the finest languages is NetLogo. This is a language, specially developed for teachers and students at high schools and universities, with which computer models and simulations can be developed for various scientific applications. The language is even suitable for creating simple AI applications. In this book, a model of the solar system is built using NetLogo.
