NetLogo VS scratch-www

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

(Patches = Cells, Turtles = Agents) https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/

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/

LiveCode is about the closest literal logical successor to HyperCard.

That said, I think Scratch is a better learning environment these days and you can develop workable apps in the style of HyperCard. There are plenty of tutorials, documentation, and examples to work from.

and https://codecombat.com, which has been around for a while now.

I think this paradigm (navigating a character using "move" function invocations) is good but kind of exhausts its usefulness after a while. I question whether my daughter learns coding this way or just is playing a turn based top down platformer. The most code like thing is when you use 'loops' to have characters repeat sequences of moves. I think when kids grok these things these apps become just types of glofiried education flavoured video games. There are a lot of things in kodable for instance that I feel are just basic web games with coding terms slapped on it.

https://scratch.mit.edu/ is more like 'programming' imo, even at the level of the objective -- having a blank canvas to create something. It seems a little advanced for my kids right now though.

+1 Scratch! My son started with it, then expanded into Roblox/Lua.

Children can download other people's games and experiment there. Scratch also has pre-made art, sounds, music.

Scratch.mit.edu is a highly-recommended place to start [1] https://scratch.mit.edu/

> Scratch is the world’s largest coding community for children and a coding language with a simple visual interface that allows young people to create digital stories, games, and animations. Scratch is designed, developed, and moderated by the Scratch Foundation, a nonprofit organization. [2]

Someone who uses scratch.mit.edu (like me)

Now that I think of it, I did start game development on scratch before going right into java (because of minecraft).
