Modelling using Cellular Automata
In this workshop, we will look at how Cellular Automata can be used in simulation and model the spread of a disease.
Particle Systems
In this workshop we will explore the basic principles and tools for simulating the motion of lots of particles at the same time, and how this can be used to simulate natural phenomena.
Make Your Own Pet Bug
Explore how simulation techniques can be used to understand how micro-organisms survive in the natural environment.
Text Generation with Markov Chains
Use Markov chains to create original text e.g. song lyrics.
Vectors and Forces
This workshop introduces you to some of the basic principles and tools for simulating motion.
Flocking
In this workshop we will create a particle system that follows 3 simple rules to behave like a flock.
Computational Snowflakes
In this festive workshop we will explore object orientated programming by creating snowflakes.
