# This model shows the basic structure of a model and is a good
# place to get started when you want to try building your own.
#
# To build your own model, extend class ABM.Model supplying the 
# two built in methods `setup` and `step`.
#
#`@foo` signifies a variable or method that is part of the Model
# class.
#
# Note how this example uses CoffeeScript directly within the
# browser via [text/coffeescript tags](http://coffeescript.org/#scripts):

u = ABM.util # shortcut for ABM.util, some tools

log = (arg) -> console.log arg # log to the browser console

class ABM.TemplateModel extends ABM.Model
  # Initialize our model via the `setup` method. This model simply
  # creates a population of agents with arbitrary shapes on a grid
  # of patches colored in random shades of gray.
  #
  setup: -> # called by Model constructor
    # When agents move, they will wiggle. This sets the 
    # degrees/radians to wiggle, which is used further below.
    #
    @wiggle = u.degreesToRadians(30)

    for patch in @patches.create()
      patch.color = u.color.random "gray"

    for agent in @agents.create 25
      agent.size = 3
      agent.shape = u.shapes.names().sample()

  # Update, or run our model for one step, via the second built in
  # method, `step`.
  #
  # The agents wiggle, and move forward.
  #
  step: -> # called by Model.animate
    for agent in @agents
      agent.rotate u.randomCentered @wiggle
      agent.forward 1

# Now that we've build our class, we call it with Model's
# constructor arguments:
#
#   div: name of the div
#   isTorus: map curls around the edges = has torus topology.
#
window.model = new ABM.TemplateModel({
  div: "world",
  isTorus: true
})
window.model.start()
