Boid simulation by Yampa in Haskell

What's boid?

Boid is a program which simulates the flocking behaviour of birds. Boid is based on simple 3 rules as follows.

• Separation
  • steer to avoid crowding local flockmates
• Alignment
  • steer towards the average heading of local flockmates
• Cohesion
  • steer to move toward the average position (center of mass) of local flockmates

(from: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Boids)

Main features

• Yampa - A functional reactive programming library
• GLUT - The OpenGL Utility Toolkit

How to run

$ stack build --exec boid-exe

Demo

This boid is a swarm of flies rather than a flocking of birds :D
