Constructor Detail

SwarmAntCA

public SwarmAntCA()

Creates a new instance of SwarmAntCA

SwarmAntCA

protected SwarmAntCA(int size_x,
                     int size_y)

Method Detail

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

Parameters:

args - the command line arguments

doStep

public void doStep()

Description copied from class: CellularAutomata

This abstract function is where the main workings of the CA should take place. Every iteration, this function is called causing the CA to advance a step.

Specified by:

doStep in interface Steppable

Specified by:

doStep in class CellularAutomata

atNest

protected boolean atNest(DirectedCAAgent ca)

atFoodSource

protected int atFoodSource(DirectedCAAgent ca)

init

public void init()

Description copied from class: CellularAutomata

This abstract function is where the initialization of the CA should take place. This function is also called when the CA is reset, so one-time initialization should remain in the constructors.

Specified by:

init in interface Steppable

Specified by:

init in class CellularAutomata

render

public void render(java.awt.Graphics graphics,
                   int pw,
                   int ph)

Description copied from class: CellularAutomataLayered

Draws the world state, then each automata.

Specified by:

render in interface Visualizable

Overrides:

render in class CellularAutomataLayered

Parameters:

graphics - the graphics context.

pw - the width of the context.

ph - the height of the context.
