That's an amazing website, my high school physics teacher actually told me about it over winter break. We're thinking he got a grant or something to make all the applets.

I wrote one of these in matlab for a partial differential equations class a year ago.

I had fun with that, it's fun to mix neumann with direchlet boundary conditions, you get some cool results.

Haha, I'd just stare at the output for long stretches of time. Good class. Waves are cool.

We did something similar, but with planets and gravitational force. You put in a planet's size and mass, initial vector and speed and then just keep adding planets. Gets chaotic after a while.
