A considerable understanding of the nature of sampled-data systems may be gained through experimental exercises. It is shown that CONTROL BASIC II minimises the effort required to write real-time control programs and thus emphasises the practical and theoretical aspects of sampled-data systems. Three experiments of varying difficulty are described.
