    Simulation:

    Simulation using the EXTEND Light Modeling system that is on the supplementary CD.   I have done this for you.
    PDF of the assignment
    macdog.exe file to be used in the assignment. This is a self- extracting archive, so execute it  and it will extract in the same directory to give you macdog2.mox which you can then use with the EXTEND program to do the assignment. It's small (20 K archive, 35 K extracted) so you can save it and extract it anyplace, even on a floppy disk.
    It's better to use the file on the CD, Macdog.mox, than to go through this rigamarole.
    Since the standalone old version of EXTEND may not work in the school system, and also doesn't work in WIN-Vista--here are videos to show the whole project in more detaol than you want to see--I urge you to use the controls at the bottom of the video to skim through the boring repetition as I will in class.
