The C.U.P.S. Utilities

Computers continue to be used successfully in the classroom to meet a variety of educational needs, and it is likely that you've included them in your
own curriculum from time to time. But if you've ever been frustrated because you can't find a program that addresses a specific problem you are
presenting to your students, or if you are tired of using bits and pieces of different programs to get your point across, The CUPS Utilities are for you.
The CUPS Utilities are a collection of simulation programming utilities for Borland's Turbo Pascal that lets you create your own simulations demonstrating the physical phenomena most often included in college-level physics courses: classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, modern physics, quantum mechanics, thermal and statistical physics, waves and optics, solid state, and nuclear and particle physics. These utilities were used by the programming team of physics teachers who produced the award winning series of CUPS software program for upper level physics courses published by John Wiley & Sons. The CUPS Utilities provide the graphical and numerical support necessary for creating anything from simple scenarios through complex and demanding simulations. Programs written with The CUPS Utilities have a user-friendly interface and make it possible to explore various physical systems by interactively varying parameters and observing the results.
The CUPS Utilities are easy to use, even for the novice programmer. The extensive user's manual begins with Pascal programming basics and explains how to write a program using the utilities, from the elements of the interface input screens, menus, buttons, and hot keys to various numerical and graphical interfaces. Once you have a firm grasp of the building blocks of object-oriented programming, you can move through the successive chapters in the documentation and learn how to add new capabilities to your simulations. Each chapter contains an appendix and a complete version of a program using the highlighted features.
The CUPS Utilities is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to program simulations. If you have tried the M.U.P.P.E.T. Utilities, another Pascal-based utility from Physics Academic Software, The CUPS Utilities are the next logical extension. It is also ideal for physics students who want to try their hand at modeling different phenomena. One sure way to learn a concept thoroughly is to build a simulation modeling it. 250 pp.
