Abstract

We describe extensions to the science querying system Scilog to enable it to make efficient simulators. Given a scientific model's details and assumptions Scilog can create a C++ simulator to check assumption consistency. We used extended Scilog to test claims that Intelligent Design makes about Evolution and found them to be at odds with basic Biology.
