4.5. Information BarΒΆ
At the bottom of the GUI - below the population and environment views - is an information bar, which provides an overview of a number of elements of the current simulation. This is updated every polling generation. The statistics it provides are:
Batch: | When RevoSim is running in batch mode, this shows how many runs are completed out of the total number requested. |
---|---|
Iteration: | The number of iterations that had been completed since the start of the simulation at the last polling interval. |
Iterations per hour: | |
This provides an indication of the speed at which RevoSim is running, and thus it is realtively easy to calculate how long any given run will take. | |
Organisms: | This is a count of the total number of digital organisms alive at the last polling iteration. |
Milliseconds per iteration: | |
This is an alternative measure of speed. | |
Mean fitness: | This is the mean fitness of all living organisms in the simulation at the last polling iteration. |
Species: | If species tracking is on, this will provide the number of species at last poll once a speciation event has occurred. |
Environment: | This is the index of the current environmental image, along with the total number that have been loaded. By default REvoSim loads with a single environmental image. |
This is printed to the terminal when REvoSim simulations are initiated from the command line in Unix builds of the software (Windows lacks this functionality).
