Abstract :
This paper presents a software package designed as an educational tool for the purpose of visualizing the physical phenomena of electromagnetic scattering from some canonical and non-canonical objects. The package is constructed to provide solutions for dielectric and conductive materials wherever appropriate, and it calculates and displays the near and far fields due to an excitation from a line source or a plane wave.
