Constructor Detail

Experiment

public Experiment()

This method initializes the experiment, by setting up the basic simulation buttons (step, run, stop, reset), and the update and stop choices on the main toolbar. The record table that records the results of the experiment is initialized.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static IExperiment getInstance(java.lang.String classname)
                               throws java.lang.Exception

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

pasteData
