The Creation of Simulation with an Algorithm Optimisation in Java for the Teaching Process

Abstract

At the Faculty of Education, we decided to use the current situation related to the spread of the COVID-19 virus. In one of the subjects whose syllabus corresponds to this topic, we included the creation of a simulation of the spread of the disease. While creating the sample example we describe in this article, we found that some original Java algorithms used in our programming framework are not as efficient as they could be. So, we focused on optimising these algorithms (a pair of related algorithms in the field of analytical geometry). Since it was an activity performed as a part of the creation of this simulation, we decided to publish it in this paper as well.
