Fish vs Sharks: Predator Prey simulation
Many years ago, A.K. Dewdney wrote an article in Scientific American Magazine (December 1984) about a world called Wator, which is a world of fish and sharks. The world is a cellular automaton with each cell being in one of three states: empty, a shark, or a fish.
The world is calculated repeatedly, each cycle being one “year”. There are simple rules about the fish and sharks and their actions in one cycle. They can breed if they’re mature enough and there’s an empty adjacent cell. Litter size is 1. They have a lifetime. If they die of old age, they disappear (no dead bodies anywhere). Fish can move to an adjacent empty cell. Sharks can eat an adjacent fish or move to an empty cell. Sharks starve to death if they haven’t eaten in the last N cycles.
I wrote a program in DeSmet C dated January 1985 to simulate the fish and sharks. I figured it was time I rewrote it using more modern programming techniques.
There are a lot of fun things you can do with the below implementation. You can manipulate the world by clicking and dragging with the mouse. You can change the cell size, so you can have a bigger world. Watch the patterns emerge as the fish and sharks live through their generations. The Graph button outputs to Excel so you can create a graph of Predator Prey population. Kill all animals so they die quickly, then draw patterns on the screen with the mouse buttons.
Some points:
- · The code uses WPF with dynamic xaml: the UI elements are created in in-line XML and then processed as XAML, including data binding the UI controls to the C# Class.
- Fish naturally tend to school together
- Bunches of sharks tend to chase fish
- A fish school will grow outward (to empty adjoining cells). That means old fish die in the middle creating empty cells for more births
- A single shark encountering a school of fish is very happy
- The initial populations aren’t too relevant: stability seems to occur fairly rapidly
- The older an animal, the darker it gets (by the gradient parameter)
- My Surface Pro 3 had the highest resolution (and thus the most cells to process), but is also the fastest of all my machines.
Things to do:
- Implement a gestational age: how many cycles before a child is born?
- Implement smell: a shark can smell food
- Implement a varying speeds: sharks are fast swimmers
In the screenshot, the fish are green and the sharks are red. The controls are on the margins. There’s a large school of fish being eaten from the bottom
Follow the directions from this post: DPI Aware Sample to create the base project from which we can inherit some immediate mode graphics functionality.
(this is similar to how we subclassed the same sample to create Logo Turtle Graphics in WPF : we’ll just be adding another project to the same solution)
We’ll now add a project to your hWndHost Solution: Right click on the Solution node in Solution Explorer, choose Add New Project->C# WPF Application. Name it “Fish”
In the new project:
Rename MainWindow.Xaml to “FishWindow.Xaml” (which will also rename the .CS file)
In FishWindow.Xaml, change
<Window x:Class="Fish.MainWindow"
To
<Window x:Class="Fish.FishWindow"
In App.Xaml, change
StartupUri="MainWindow.xaml">
To
StartupUri="FishWindow.xaml">
Right click on the Solution->Fish project and “Set As Startup”, which says ,when you hit F5, or Ctrl-F5 to GO, the project to run is the Fish project.
Hit F5 to test: you should see a blank window. Close it.
Right click on the Logo->References->Add reference, add a reference to the Solution->Projects->hWndHost project.
Paste in the code below to replace FishWindow.Xaml.cs
