Question 1

Definition:

A continuous signal or a continuous-time signal is a varying quantity (a signal) that is expressed as a function of a real-valued domain, usually time.

i.                     Show that f(t) = Sin(t) , tÎR is a perfect example of an infinite duration signal.

ii.                    What will be the finite duration counterpart for the above signal?

 Question 2

What is a computer simulation language?

How does a discrete-event simulation language differ from a continuous simulation language? Give one example of each.
