animation and simulation

Animation is the technique of creating moving images by displaying a sequence of pictures or frames, making objects or characters appear to move realistically or creatively. Simulation is the process of modeling real-world systems or phenomena—like weather, traffic, or physics—to study their behavior without physically recreating them. Both are used to visualize complex ideas: animation for storytelling and entertainment, and simulation for analysis, training, or testing scenarios. In essence, animation brings scenes to life visually, while simulation mimics real or hypothetical processes for understanding or experimentation.
