"""Simple hexagonal Landlab cellular automaton.

This file defines the HexCTS class, which is a sub-class of
CellLabCTSModel that implements a simple, non-oriented, hex-grid
CA. Like its parent class, HexCTS implements a continuous-time, stochastic,
pair-based CA. The hex grid has 3 principal directions, rather than 2 for a
raster. Hex grids are often used in CA models because of their symmetry.

Parameters ---------- model_grid : Landlab ModelGrid object Reference to the model's grid node_state_dict : dict Keys are node-state codes, values are the names associated with these codes transition_list : list of Transition objects List of all possible transitions in the model initial_node_states : array of ints (x number of nodes in grid) Starting values for node-state grid prop_data : array (x number of nodes in grid) (optional) Array of properties associated with each node/cell prop_reset_value : number or object, optional Default or initial value for a node/cell property (e.g., 0.0). Must be same type as *prop_data*. Examples -------- >>> from landlab import HexModelGrid >>> from landlab.ca.celllab_cts import Transition >>> from landlab.ca.hex_cts import HexCTS >>> mg = HexModelGrid((4, 3), spacing=1.0) >>> nsd = {0: "yes", 1: "no"} >>> xnlist = [] >>> xnlist.append(Transition((0, 1, 0), (1, 1, 0), 1.0, "frogging")) >>> nsg = mg.add_zeros("node", "node_state_grid") >>> hcts = HexCTS(mg, nsd, xnlist, nsg) """
