Packages and IDEs (Integrated Development Environments)
- NetLogo - has its own interpreted object-oriented language.
- Pros: free; platform-independet; probably the easiest IDE for agent-based modeling; easy to make a GUI (Graphical User Interface; e.g. add sliders for variables, add plots, and so on), built-in loops ("forever" checkbox on the Go button as well as the "ask" keyword).
- Cons: not very powerful, fast, or flexible.
- Repast - an agent-based modeling visualization package designed to work with Java (platform-independent) or C# (Microsoft Windows only).
