Locomotion Simulation of Fruit Fly Larvae Using Random Walk

Project Overview

This simulation is designed to model the random walk of fruit fly, or Drosophila, larvae. This simulates a user-determined number of larvae wandering around on a 2-D surface without any external stimuli.

Installation

To run the larva simulation, you'll need to have Python installed on your system. Follow the steps below to set up the project:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/random-walk-of-larvae.git
   cd random-walk-of-larvae

2. Create a virtual environment:

• Using venv (Unix/macOS):

  python3 -m venv venv
  source venv/bin/activate
  

• Using virtualenv (Windows):

  virtualenv venv
  .\venv\Scripts\activate
  

3. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

Usage

To start the simulation, run the following command:

python src/multi_simulator.py

To run multiple simulations, run the following command:

python src/run_simulations.py
