Declaration

void __stdcall nbrhdMoore(
	int range,      	// range of neighbourhood
	int boundaryType	// type of boundary on world
);

Parameters

range: Range of Moore neighbourhood.
boundaryType: Type of boundary to impose on world. See Remarks.

Remarks

This function is available through the API. It can be called within the model-supplied routine onSimCreate to set the neighbourhood of each agent to a Moore neighbourhood of range range. This consists of all sites reachable within range steps up, down, or diagonally (forming a square of side 2×range+1 excepting the center cell).

The neighbours are indexed from left to right and top to bottom. For example, if range=1 the neighbour indices of agent a are

0	1	2
3	`a`	4
5	6	7

Boundaries

Boundaries are handled by the boundaryType parameter which may be one of the following:

All borders wrap around forming a torus.

Agents at the edge have fewer neighbours.

Example

void __stdcall setNbrhd(double *param) { nbrhdMoore(1,btEmpty); }
