Basic code released. CEC2008 Competition Submitted.

1st September 2007

This project and the algorithms are currently being open sourced. For more information contact Cara MacNish.

Code

Basic code for evaluating points on the Huygens Landscapes can now be found in the files: Moon.java and Ran0.java.

This will soon be updated with cleaned, commented versions and easy to use instructions and routines, and provided for other languages. Please email Cara or register here to receive updates.
