Abstract
A description is given of an interactive simulation computer program written in BASIC which has been used to illustrate some of the consequences of selection of quantitative characters. An indication is given of the way in which this program has been found useful in supplementing theoretical instruction and practical investigations presented to undergraduate classes in this Department.Keywords
