Simulation

1. Simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or system over time. It involves creating a computer model that represents the key characteristics and behaviors of the actual system. By running simulations, we can analyze and predict the behavior of the system under different conditions, without the need to conduct expensive or risky experiments in the real world. Simulations are used in various fields, including science, engineering, economics, and entertainment, to study complex systems, test hypotheses, optimize processes, and train individuals in a safe and controlled environment.
