NETLOGO FEATURES

Extensive use is made of "patch-at", "BREED-at", and "VARIABLE-of".

It was awkward to be required to say "random-one-of" in order to return a single turtle instead of an agent set when there is only one turtle in the agent set.

Applets on this website were written by Teresa Carrigan in 2004, for use in computer science courses at Blackburn College, with the exception of the Fireworks applet. The applets made with NetLogo require Java 1.4.1 or higher to run. The applets made with NetBeans require Java 1.4.2 or higher to run. Applets might not run on Windows 95 or Mac OS 8 or 9. You may obtain the latest Java plugin from Sun's Java site.
