Program must be written in C++:
The goal for this Programming Project is to create a simple two-dimensional predator-prey simulation. In this simulation the prey are ants and the predator are doodlebugs. These critters live in a world composed of 20 x 20 grid of cells. Only one critter may occupy a cell at a time. The grid is enclosed, so a critter is not allowed to move off the edges of the world. Time is simulated in time steps. Each critter performs some action every time step.
The ants behave according to the following model:
Move: Every time step, randomly try to move up, down, left, or right. If the neighboring cell in the selected direction is occupied or would move the ant off the grid, then the ant stays in the current cell.
Breed: If an ant survives for three time steps, then at the end of the time step (that is; after moving) the ant will breed. This is simulated by creating a new ant in an adjacent (up, down, left, or right) cell that is empty. If there is no empty cell available, then no breeding occurs. Once an offspring is produced, an ant cannot produce an offspring until three more time steps have elapsed.
The doodlebugs behave according to the following model:
Move. Every time step, if there is an adjacent ant (up, down, left, or right), then the doodlebug will move to the cell and eat the ant. Otherwise, the doodlebug moves according to the same rules as the ant. Note that a doodlebug cannot eat other doodlebugs.
Breed: If a doodlebug survives for eight time steps, then at the end of the time step it will spawn off a new doodlebug in the same manner as the ant.
Starve: If a doodlebug has not eaten an ant within the last three time steps, then at the end of the third time step it will starve and die. The doodlebugs should then be removed from the grid of cells.
During one turn, all the doodlebugs should move before the ants do.
Write a program to implement this simulation and draw the world using ASCII characters of “o” for an ant and “X” for a doodlebug. Create a class named Organism that encapsulates basic data common to both ants and doodlebugs. This class should have a virtual function named move that is defined in the derived classes of Ant and Doodlebug. You may need additional data structures to keep track of which critters have moved.
Initialize the world with 5 doodlebugs and 100 ants. After each
time step, prompt the user to press Enter to move to the next time
step. You should see cyclical pattern between the population of
predators and prey, although random perturbations may lead to the
elimination of one or both species.

*Using C++* You will create a program that uses a Critter class to move around a Grid, which is also a class. The Critter and the Grid classes will be in separate files. The Critter class will have a data member to count the number of moves made. It will also need data members to hold the current x and y coordinates. It will have a member function that randomly moves it one space in one of 4 directions. You...

a derived class from Organism. You must complete the constructors, and the method definitions that were abstract methods in Organism. /** Organism.java * Definition for the Organism base class. * Each organism has a reference back to the World object so it can move * itself about in the world. */ public abstract class Organism { protected int x, y; // Position in the world protected boolean moved; // boolean to indicate if moved this turn ...
You will write a Java program that implements Conway’s Game of Life, a simple cellular automaton discussed in class. See for example: http://www.bitstorm.org/gameoflife/ Our version has a 10 x 10 grid, numbered like this: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 The grid is represented by a 10 x 10 2dimensional integer array. If the grid point (i, j) is "populated", the array element [i][j] contains 1;...
Assignment Predator / Prey Objectives Reading from and writing to text files Implementing mathematical formulas in C++ Implementing classes Using vectors Using command line arguments Modifying previously written code Tasks For this project, you will implement a simulation for predicting the future populations for a group of animals that we’ll call prey and their predators. Given the rate at which prey births exceed natural deaths, the rate of predation, the rate at which predator deaths exceeds births without a food...
Objective: Write a program that implements the Game of Life cellular automata system invented by John Conway. 1. Create two game grids of size at least 50x50. These grid cells can be either Boolean or integer. In the following, I’ll refer to these as gridOne and gridTwo. 2. Set all cells in both grids to false. 3. Start by initializing gridOne. Allow the user to specify two different ways of initializing the grid: 1) by specifying a pattern file to...
The following guidelines outline the basic template for a robot vacuum cleaner game. The game must be implemented in c programming language. It mimics a robotic vacuum cleaner. The code must only use the following libraries: #include <math.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <limits.h> and any .graphics and .timers libraries. The guidelines are outlined as follows: Terminal Set-up: you may assume that the terminal will be quite large, for example, on the order of 150×50, or more. Status Display: The...
How can we assess whether a project is a success or a failure? This case presents two phases of a large business transformation project involving the implementation of an ERP system with the aim of creating an integrated company. The case illustrates some of the challenges associated with integration. It also presents the obstacles facing companies that undertake projects involving large information technology projects.
