Title
APL in Computer-Assisted Instruction: Simulation of Stochastic Processes in science teaching
Abstract
The significance of APL for the application in CAI is discussed. In the frame of a basic course 'Mathematics for Physicists' a series of programs were written in APL to simulate stochastic processes: Galton board, diffusion, transport of charged particles, diffraction of light, zero-point fluctuations of a moving-coil galvanometer. These programs are described, together with the outlines of the simulation methods used.
