Thinking in Systems - Level 6 - Boundary and Initial Conditions

Mr. Anderson introduces the concept of boundary and initial conditions in systems, using games like 'Six in the House' and 'Mini Solitaire' to illustrate these ideas. He explains how to define a system, determine if it's open or closed, and track inputs and outputs. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for applications in physics and climate science.
