AgentPy - Agent-based modeling in Python

AgentPy is an open-source library for the development and analysis of agent-based models in Python. The framework integrates the tasks of model design, interactive simulations, numerical experiments, and data analysis within a single environment. The package is optimized for interactive computing with IPython, IPySimulate, and Jupyter. If you have questions or ideas for improvements, please visit the discussion forum.
