Most Swarm examples that I have studied have something like the following in
Heatbugs:
- setIdealTemperature: (HeatValue)i;
- setOutputHeat: (HeatValue)o;
- setIdealTemperature: (HeatValue)i
{
idealTemperature = i;
return self;
}
- setOutputHeat: (HeatValue)o
{
outputHeat = o;
return self;
}
I have searched the files of Heatbugs to find the role played by "i" and "o"
but cannot see one. When "idealTemperature " and "outputHeat" are referred to
later, there is no reference to "i" and "o". How do the values of "i" and "o"
get determined? What do they do?
