The Sims - is a popular video game that simulate reality. In this game you have to build cities, which contains houses, shops and etc.
Simulations are not only used for fun, but also for studying and things we cannot test in real life, for example: pilot training, engineering.
With the help of the computer simulations, we can develop new things, without putting people's lives at risk. They provide us with fun, but also play a big role in our future.
Do the names Sim City, The Sims, MS Flight Simulator mean anything to you? Well, they are all popular video games that simulate reality. In Sim City, for example, players have to build a city that looks and functions much like a real one. with houses, shops and factories.
However, we don't only use computer simulations for
fun. There are many things thatwe cannot study or test in real life because it would be too difficult or dangerous. Computer simulations make such study and testing possible. In the past, for example, pilot training used to be very dangerous. Nowadays, pilots can practise their skills before they enter the cockpit by using flight simulators. Engineers also use computer simulations to design and test new products before people start using them. They can identify dangerous faults in cars and buildings, for instance, and therefore save lives.
With the help of computer simulations we can develop new things without putting people's lives at risk during real life testing. They not only provide us with entertainment, but also play an important role in our future.
