NetLogo VS janet

This is exactly the kind of problem NetLOGO is geared toward modelling and solving. It is very much like the LOGO (turtle graphics) you might have learned as a tween, but multi-agent, so you can model the behaviour of several types of cars (fast, slow, hesitant, etc), design a few multi-lane obstacles, and let 'r rip.

There are 3D and 2D versions, but your problem will quite suit the 2D version.

Check it out. I'd love to see the results, as your subject is one of very common interest.

From the title it sounds like research on humans but the paper is actually all about a simple software model of a group of entities going 'foraging'

The model is using a program called NetLogo

Seems like a fun program, you set up 'turtles' and give them attributes and rules and then watch them roam around

I thought this was interesting:

    ;adding individual noise into the speeds of individuals, to avoid computational problems caused by all individuals being on top of each other in a cell

Looks like it wad probably made in netlogo: http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/

My team has a simulation model in NetLogo that needs a separate UI (data with will flow back and forth between simulation and UI, largely in the form of csv files). How might this be set up in Azure? Any recommendations for UI frameworks (React+Flask, Vue+Express, etc.) or file [system log] storage? I am very new to development so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I have a piece of code in NetLogo programming language that I am unable to run in NetLogo software (https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/) as I am facing some errors while doing so. If anyone can help me, we can discuss the budget.

I was scanning the NetLogo installer to make sure I got the correct version, and didn't instead get a virus, but the antivirus has been running for a while and it reports greater than 90K files (still running) in the NetLogo installer. Is this right? I got it from here: https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/

Seems like a perfect use-case for Janet. (https://janet-lang.org/) A fast minimal VM like Lua, but even more extensible than Lua by being a "Lisp" with macro and C extension capabilities. Not a true Lisp, it's very pragmatic and performance-oriented. But it keeps the good stuff.

It comes with a build tool `jpm` which installs dependencies globally by default, but you can have it be installed in your project folder as well.

I like Clojure, but I never had any good opportunities to use it other than for a few small hobby projects. It is unfortunate that it is so huge with tons of dependencies and no simpler native implementation. I started looking at various LISPs and Schemes to find something lighter to use instead and ended up settling for Janet that I think is Clojure-like enough to be comfortable to use, but in a small native binary with no dependencies and can be embedded in other native programs. I am sure for big, real, projects that Clojure makes more sense, but for my hobby projects and scripts I do not think I will install it again. I am still happy for the things I learned from learning Clojure. It was a real eye-opener for an old OO-programmer.

One might also check out Janet for quick scripting tasks.

Thanks!

I thought about another multiplatform, homoiconic, highly compact language: https://janet-lang.org/ (takes 803 kb on my machine).

It has no types though.

Racket is great, and if you like it you might find Rash interesting:

Janet and Gerbil Scheme are also worth a look:

Point here is that, for instance Janet language does not have cons / pair type but tuple (and so is lispoid, not lisp), but clearly this is sufficient for macros & hence seamless language construction: all you need is to be a lispoid although being a lisp gives another useful feature.
