Algorithm Classics from the Rosetta Code
Part 16 of 16
Sometimes an example says more than 1000 pages of documentation. This series will take specific algorithmns and discuss their implementation in PicoLisp step by step. https://rosettacode.org/
The Forest Fire Model: Let it burn!
The Task Implement the Drossel and Schwabl definition of the forest-fire model. It is basically a 2D cellular automaton where each cell can be in three distinct states: empty, tree and burning, and evolves according to the following rules: A burni...

A Railroad Simulation with DES
In our previous post, we introduced how to utilize Discrete Event Simulation (DES) in PicoLisp. Now, let's explore another application: a railroad model simulation that includes tracks and trains. The visualization is ASCII-based, so feel free to unl...

PicoLixp Explored: On Coroutines
In this post, we will introduce the concept of co-routines and how they are handled in PicoLisp. This will be the foundation for the subsequent posts on Discrete Event Simulation and finally a couple of examples, including an ASCII model railway simu...

Data Visualization with D3.js and PicoLisp
One of the many nice things of PicoLisp is that it comes with a built-in database. This makes it easy to collect and store our own data, for example via a mobile app. But not all data is best represented in tables and lists: sometimes a colorful litt...

Improving User Experience with Server-Sent Events
In the last two posts, we have built a little app that shows the current location and displays the nearest ice cream shops: https://picolisp-explored.com/an-openstreetmap-app-written-in-picolisp-pt-1 https://picolisp-explored.com/an-openstreetmap-ap...
