🦋 NAME 🦋

okay bestie, this is the manual for Aevol 💖 It's an in silico experimental evolution platform, so basically a simulation where digital organisms evolve for you ✨

🧚 SYNOPSIS 🧚

aevol_propagate -h or --help
aevol_propagate -V or --version
aevol_propagate [-t TIMESTEP] [-K] [-o OUTDIR] [-v]

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so Aevol is a simulation platform where you get to let populations of digital organisms evolve in different conditions 🌈 The whole point is to study, experimentally, the mechanisms behind how the genome and the transcriptome get structured. It's giving science and it's giving main character energy 💅

  • aevol_propagate — this one makes a fresh copy of your experiment as it was at the timestep you pick 🎀 The copy's timestep gets reset to 0, so it starts from a clean slate 🍓

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -h, --help — shows you the help text, then bounces 👋
  • -V, --version — prints the version number, then exits 🔥
  • -t, --timestep TIMESTEP — picks the timestep you want to propagate 🦋
    • default: whatever is in the file last_gener.txt, if that file exists
  • -K, --keep-prng-st — leaves the prng states alone, no touching 🫶
  • -o, --out OUTDIR — tells it where to put the output 📁
    • default "./output"
  • -v, --verbose — be verbose, aka it'll tell you everything 🗣️
