<H2>Emergent behaviour (diffraction) - diffraction.tao</H2>
This script creates two rectangular sheets and joins them together using
the Join statement. The boundary between the two sheets is then
locked in several places leaving a few `slots' where the waves can get through.
A short impulse is applied to one of the sheets named verb|source|
and the resulting wave fronts interfere after having passed through the
slots to form diffraction patterns.
