Particle

Particle Movement (within the Geometric Amoebot Model) * should move contracted particle to adjacent unoccupied node when moving * should contract expanded particle to one of its nodes when moving

avoid conflicts between the Simulation and our test cases. Exclude the simulation of particle motion from the Node class (see the node.js file). [⇒ First Animated Program]

// Simulate particle movement setInterval(() => { particles.forEach((particle) => { particle.move(); console.log(`Particle ${particle.id} moved to position (${particle.position.x}, ${particle.position.y})`); }); }, 1000); // Adjust simulation speed as needed

create a new instance of a Class Particle

class Particle { constructor(id, position, state) { this.id = id; // Unique identifier for the particle this.position = position; // Current position on the grid this.state = state; // 'contracted' or 'expanded' this.head = null; // Node the particle last expanded into this.tail = null; // Other occupied node } expandTo(node) { this.state = 'expanded'; this.head = node; } contractTo(node) { this.state = 'contracted'; this.tail = node; } move() { // Simulate particle movement based on expansions and contractions if (this.state === 'contracted') { // Particle is contracted, try to expand to adjacent node const adjacentNodes = this.getAdjacentNodes(); for (const node of adjacentNodes) { if (!node.occupied) { this.expandTo(node); node.occupied = true; return; } } } else if (this.state === 'expanded') { // Particle is expanded, try to contract to one of its nodes if (!this.tail.occupied) { this.contractTo(this.tail); this.head.occupied = false; } } } getAdjacentNodes() { // Get adjacent nodes on the triangular grid // Implement your own logic for identifying adjacent nodes based on the triangular grid structure // For simplicity, this implementation assumes a flat grid with triangular cells // and calculates adjacent nodes based on their positions // You may need to adjust this logic based on your specific grid structure const adjacentNodes = []; // Implement logic to identify adjacent nodes based on current position // For example, you could use geometric calculations or pre-defined mappings return adjacentNodes; } }
