Guidelines for creating a simulation

Please follow the steps below. The order is important.

1. Create the markets and add them into the economy. The markets need to be created first because the constructors of the agents reference the markets. Here is an example of creating a labor market and adding it to the economy.

LaborMarket lMkt = new LaborMarket();
Economy.addMarket(lMkt);

2. Create the firms. Capital firms need to be created before other firms, because the constructors of consumer goods firms require reference to an array of capital firms.

3. Add the firms to the economy. For instance, here is how to add the X firms:

for (int i = 0; i < NUM_XFIRMS; i++) Economy.addAgent(XFirms[i]);

4. Create laborers and add them to the economy.

5. Clear the labor market by calling lMkt.clear(). This is to allow // forget this for now firms to get labor before the start of the first time step.

6. Note: eos.io.printer has been removed; printing for tracing, debugging, and graphing is now done through the simpler eos.io.trace

7. Run the simulation by calling Economy.run(NUM_STEP).
