Abstract: Abstract As a first step toward more sophisticated simulation programming, this chapter presents a VBA simulation of the TTF example in Chap. 1 . It also provides a gentle introduction to some important simulation concepts, and a brief overview of VBA, leaving the details to Chap. 4 . Good reference texts on VBA as used for simulation and modeling are Elizandro and Taha [2008] and Albright [2007].
