efast_generate_sample_netlogo: Prepares Netlogo experiment files for a variance-based...
In kalden/spartan: Simulation Parameter Analysis R Toolkit ApplicatioN: 'spartan'

Description Usage Arguments

Creates a set of parameter values, over the specified value space, using the sampling method described in the eFAST technique. Then processes each of these into a Netlogo experiment XML file, from which a simulation can be run.

efast_generate_sample_netlogo(FILEPATH, NUMCURVES, NUMSAMPLES, MEASURES,
  PARAMETERS, PARAMVALS, EXPERIMENT_REPETITIONS, RUNMETRICS_EVERYSTEP,
  NETLOGO_SETUP_FUNCTION, NETLOGO_RUN_FUNCTION)

`FILEPATH`	Directory where the parameter samples and XML models are to be stored
`NUMCURVES`	The number of 'resamples' to perform (see eFAST documentation) - recommend using at least 3.
`NUMSAMPLES`	The number of parameter subsets to be generated for each curve in the eFAST design.
`MEASURES`	Array containing the names of the Netlogo output measures which are used to analyse the simulation.
`PARAMETERS`	Array containing the names of the parameters of which parameter samples will be generated
`PARAMVALS`	Array containing either the parameter value (if not of interest in the analysis), or range under which this is being explored (stated as as string e.g. "[5,50,5]" for a range of 5-50, increment of 5). The reader should read the relevant tutorial in detail.
`EXPERIMENT_REPETITIONS`	The number of times Netlogo should repeat the experiment for each set of parameter values.
`RUNMETRICS_EVERYSTEP`	Boolean stating whether Netlogo should produce output for each timestep.
`NETLOGO_SETUP_FUNCTION`	The name of the function in Netlogo that sets up the simulation. Commonly is named setup.
`NETLOGO_RUN_FUNCTION`	The name of the function in Netlogo that starts the simulation. Commonly named go.
