public class ForExperiment
extends Experiment
This object sets up a series of experiments to be run. This object takes as its parameters the name of a variable to change in each experiment, the initial and final values of the variable, the increment, and the experiment to run.

Constructor Index

o ForExperiment()

Method Index

o getParameters(int)
Return a parameter array if BNF(), parse(), and unparse() are to be automated, null otherwise.
o initialize(int)
Initialize, either partially or completely.
o runOneStep()
This runs one step of the simulation.
o setWatchManager(WatchManager, String)
Register all variables with this WatchManager.

Constructors

o ForExperiment 
 public ForExperiment()

Methods

o getParameters 
 public Object[][] getParameters(int lang)
Return a parameter array if BNF(), parse(), and unparse() are to be automated, null otherwise.

Overrides:
getParameters in class Experiment
See Also:
getParameters
o setWatchManager 
 public void setWatchManager(WatchManager wm,
                             String name)
Register all variables with this WatchManager. This will be called after all parsing is done. setWatchManager should be overridden and forced to call the same method on all the other objects in the experiment.

Overrides:
setWatchManager in class Experiment
o runOneStep 
 public boolean runOneStep()
This runs one step of the simulation. The function returns true when the simulation is completely done. As the simulation is running, it should call the watchManager.update() function when varaibles change so all the display windows can be updated.

Overrides:
runOneStep in class Experiment
o initialize 
 public void initialize(int level)
Initialize, either partially or completely.

Overrides:
initialize in class Experiment
See Also:
