NetLogoR: A Port of 'NetLogo' Functions and Language to R

Easily create agent-based models in R following the 'NetLogo' framework (Wilensky, 1999; <http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/>). 'NetLogoR' provides classes to represent 'patches' (raster cells) and 'turtles' (individuals), the necessary 'NetLogo' primitives (<https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/docs/dictionary.html>), and complementary functions to easily build agent-based models or translate 'NetLogo' models in R. A programming guide derived from the 'NetLogo' Programming Guide (<https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/docs/programming.html>) and a dictionary of 'NetLogo' primitives (<https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/docs/dictionary.html>) equivalences are available. As examples, three 'NetLogo' models (Ants, <http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/models/Ants>; Butterfly, Railsback and Grimm, 2012; Wolf-Sheep-Predation, <http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/models/WolfSheepPredation>) were translated in R language using 'NetLogoR'. NOTE: To increment 'time', these functions can use a for loop or can be integrated with a discrete event simulator, such as 'SpaDES' (<https://cran.r-project.org/package=SpaDES>). The suggested package 'fastshp' can be installed with 'install.packages("fastshp", repos = "https://rforge.net", type = "source")'.
