sprout.RdCreate n new turtles on specific patches.
sprout(n, patches, breed, heading, color, turtles) # S4 method for numeric,matrix sprout(n, patches, breed, heading, color, turtles)
| n | Integer. Vector of length 1 or of length the number of |
|---|---|
| patches | Matrix (ncol = 2) with the first column "pxcor" and the second column "pycor" representing the patches coordinates. |
| breed | Character. Vector of "breed" names.
Must be of length 1 or of length the number of |
| heading | Numeric. Vector of values between 0 and 360.
Must be of length 1 or of length the number of |
| color | Character. Vector of color names.
Must be of length 1, of length the number of |
| turtles | AgentMatrix object representing the moving agents. |
AgentMatrix including the new sprouted turtles.
nrow(patches) must be equal to 1 or to n.
If turtles is provided, the new turtles are added to
the turtles when returned. The who numbers of the sprouted turtles
therefore follow the ones from the turtles.
All new sprouted turtles are placed at the end of the agentMatrix object.
If no turtles
is provided, a new agentMatrix is created and the who numbers
start at 0.
If turtles is provided and had additional variables created
with turtlesOwn(), NA is given for these variables
for the new sprouted turtles.
