Package fluids Description

This package was created by Russell Zahniser (russell@zahniser.net) as a lab activity demonstrating the advantages of an object-oriented programming approach. The package provides objects that describe the state of a fluid dynamical system; in the lab, students use EventTimers to drive a simulation using these objects. You can learn more, or find similar labs, at www.zahniser.net/~russell/computer.

This package requires a modified version of the ObjectDraw library, also available from the above website.
