Re: [Swarm-Modelling] beginner part 2

I would have thought it rather difficult to write an IBM in
Matlab. Matlab is vector/matrix oriented, which suits models written
in a vector style, rather than agent-based style. (Of course
vector-based IBM's do exist, but they're a discrete subset of IBMs).

Cheers
