In this lecture, we discuss an upcoming assignment in SOS 212 that will provide practice in creating more complex, multi-sector system dynamics models. We review how to create rate formulas for processes like population growth. We review lookup tables. We review ghost primitives/shadow variables. We also introduce how to use modular arithmetic (mod/modulo/modulus) that, when combined with a lookup table, makes seasonal patterns easy to introduce in system dynamics models. This is also covered for both Vensim (from Ventana Software) and Insight Maker.
