Simulation of a laboratory experiment

Virus Simulation

In this Project I simulated a laboratory experiment as a life game.

Description

We have a habitat that contains randomly distributed entities. In our experiment our habitat will be a NxN square place.

Each entity has 5 different gates which can be named from { A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H } set.

The Spreading V can infect an entity if the entity has A or B gate. If the entity has 3 gates which are named as A,B,C,D than this entity will die after 14 turns otherwise it will recover and get immune to Spreading V. after 30 turns. Dead entities stay in habitat for five turns and be infectious. They can not move.

Spreading V can infect from one entity to other if they are closer than 3 units (in square form). An entity becomes infectious after 3 turn.

Usage

Simulation will take the start information from input.txt file which will be on the same file with executable. This file include information about habitat constants, entities and their movements in turns.

Simulation will write an output.txt file which will show the infected and died entities and last situation of the habitat. Also, after each turn you will fill another file “turns.txt”. This file shows a brief outcome for each turn.

There must be a INPUT.txt file in same folder with executable.

Example of INPUT.txt, OUTPUT.txt and TURNS.txt added to repo.

WARNING: This project one of the first big project I coded. So there is no naming convention, no proper use of OOP. Im planning to rewrite in the future.
