The M.U.P.P.E.T. Utilities

The computer is an extremely powerful tool in physics, but if your students lack a fundamental understanding of basic programming techniques, all that power can be mysterious and even frustrating. At times, it seems like the computer is in control!
In order to use the computer effectively, students must be able to do more than run "canned" software packages. The M.U.P.P.E.T. Utilities is a set of simple procedures for Turbo Pascal designed to make it easier for students to solve physics with the computer. M.U.P.P.E.T. handles the technical aspects of programming and, most importantly, it empowers users by providing an exceptional foundation for developing good programming skills.
M.U.P.P.E.T. includes sample and demonstration programs that will enable you to produce competent, useful
programs. The sample programs are fully structured and well-commented, so they can be varied or used as
templates for new programs. M.U.P.P.E.T. guides you through all the steps necessary to produce a simulation,
emphasizing the correlation between code and output. The manual includes source code for all the sample
programs, and by viewing and changing the code, it is easy to see how the resulting output is affected. This
process reinforces the learning process too. When students understand phenomena well enough to write code
correctly and produce an accurate simulation, they truly comprehend that event.
Teachers will find M.U.P.P.E.T. valuable because it lets them explore subjects in introductory courses that are traditionally reserved for more advanced curriculums. It also provides students with a variety of professional skills early in their studies and gets them involved in real science by enabling them to design and carry out their own research projects independently on the computer. 292 pp.
