                                          Abstract
                                          The article emphasizes the importance of the adaptive use of theoretical results in
                                          computer modeling of economic growth. Computer models prove to be a powerful tool
                                          for analyzing and forecasting economic processes, but they have their advantages and
                                          limitations. Positive aspects include the inclusion of various factors in the model, the
                                          decomposition of the economic system, the consideration of international trade, and the
                                          possibility of modification. The limitations include unrealistic assumptions, the absence
                                          of some aspects (such as the shadow economy), and the failure to take into account
                                          economic cycles. It is concluded that for practical application it is important to get rid of
                                          unrealistic assumptions and develop system models based on mathematical validity.
