Project 3 feedback - 3/20

All in all I would say that Project 3 was a success for me. Unfortunately, I did not have as much time as I would have liked due to being on vacation over Spring Break, but for the time I had I felt I was able to do reasonably well. I learned how to use the Netlogo language to create a simulation by opening up all the sample models and researching the code in each one. Because of this I also learned much about the different models themselves, how they work, and the simulations they are portraying.

Something I would change and improve upon:

I could not get the different brushes to change colors the way I wanted. They are set on a global timer, and after so many "ticks" they revert back to their original colors. This is fine for aesthetic purposes, but it sort of diminishes the concept of true complexity theory I was going for. I would have liked to create a local variable pertaining to each turtle instead.
