| abstraction | simplifying some complex details in order to focus on the main points of a problem |
| computational abstraction | using a computer to make a simplified model of a complex problem |
| model | a simplified version of a complex problem |
| physical systems | a process or machine such as a car production line or theme park rollercoaster |
| real world problem | something that can be difficult to predict or calculate such as the weather or how a disease spreads |
| simulation | using a computer program to analyse or predict how a physical system or real world problem works |
