Growing Crystals with a Computer.

Peer reviewed

Berkowitz, S. J.; Haase, D. G. – Physics Education, 1987

Describes an open-ended computer simulation project that can be used to illustrate the growth of solid crystals in different forms at any level from high school physics to graduate physics. Discusses a simple computer program in BASIC language on an IBM personal computer. Gives examples of simulations. (CW)
