    Time's arrow is the concept that time flows in one direction from the past to the future. A numerical experiment was conducted to test this concept by simulating the motions of particles under time-reversible laws. The results showed that the particles evolved in a way consistent with the arrow of time, moving from an initial low entropy state to a higher entropy state in the future direction.
