A Tool for Real-time Illustration of Basic Concepts in an Economics Course
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an interactive software program that is used as a tool to introduce important economic concepts to students in a user-friendly environment. This software is specially developed for educational purposes, and generates multiple polynomials of ndegree, i.e., linear, quadratic, cubic, and higher order curves. By changing variable values, real-time manipulation of the curves can be applied, illustrating different behaviours and meanings of these concepts. The student can observe behaviours of economic relationships changing in real-time. This software can be used as a supplement to in-class teaching for illustrating practical examples of the theoretical economic concepts.

متن کاملA Survey on Different Solution Concepts in Multiobjective Linear Programming Problems with Interval Coefficients
Optimization problems have dedicated a branch of research to themselves for a long time ago. In this field, multiobjective programming has special importance. Since in most real-world multiobjective programming problems the possibility of determining the coefficients certainly is not existed, multiobjective linear programming problems with interval coefficients are investigated in this paper. C...
