> **Project Overview:** Simulating Natural Selection in Ecosystems using C++ and Python

SimEvo leverages the computational efficiency of C++ for the core simulation engine and offers an intuitive Python interface for ease of use and accessibility. It models ecosystems composed of organisms with genetically determined traits, interacting within an environment that includes resources like food. The simulation observes the principles of natural selection, with organism survival and reproduction influenced by their traits and environmental factors.

- 💻 **Implemented In**:
  - **Core Library**: C++
  - **Bindings & Interface**: Python

## How to use

### Install directly from PyPI
!!!This feature is only support **Linux** and **MacOS** currently. 
```
pip install simevopy
```

### Build from scratch

#### Build for testing
```
mkdir build; cd build
cmake -S .. -B . -DBUILD_TESTS=true
make
ctest -V
```

#### Build for python package
```
python setup.py install
```
or 
```
pip install .
```

### Components:

SimEvo integrates a high-performance C++ simulation engine with Python bindings for ease of use. Key architectural components include:

* **Core Simulation Engine (C++)**: Manages the dynamics of natural selection and organism interactions.
* **Python API (C++/Python via pybind11)**: Allows users to define and manipulate the simulation parameters easily.
* **Spatial Indexing (Quadtree)**: Optimizes computational tasks related to spatial relationships and interactions among entities.

### Python Script Examples

The script sets up a SimSel simulation in a 500x500 space, initializing 10 "ABCD" gene organisms and distributing food to model resource scarcity. Operating in an "optimize" mode for efficiency, it cycles through 100 generations, each time scattering food and advancing the simulation to observe natural selection as organisms interact, feed, and reproduce based on genetic traits. You can find more examples in [examples](/examples). 

```python
from simevopy import Environment, Organism, Genes
import random

# Setup base organisms in the environment
def setup_base_organism(env, count=10):
    for _ in range(count):
        x = random.randint(0, env.width - 1)
        y = random.randint(0, env.height - 1)
        env.add_organism(Organism(Genes("ABCD")), x, y)

# Distribute food randomly within the environment
def distribute_food_randomly(env, food_count=50):
    for _ in range(food_count):
        x = random.randint(0, env.width - 1)
        y = random.randint(0, env.height - 1)
        env.add_food(x, y)

# Create an optimized environment
env = Environment(500, 500, type="optimize")

# Initialize organisms
setup_base_organism(env)

# Run the simulation over 100 generations
for i in range(100):
    print(f"Gen {i} th")
    distribute_food_randomly(env, 100)
    env.simulate_iteration(50)
```
