Computer experiment

A computer experiment is a type of experiment where you use a computer to collect data. For example, if you wanted to measure how long it takes to get from home to school, you could write a computer program that records how long it takes you to get there. Then, you can run the program several times and use the data to compare different routes or compare the same route at different times of the day.
