Simpact Cyan - 0.20.0rc1¶
This document is the reference documentation for the Simpact Cyan
program, the C++ version of the Simpact
family of programs.
The program is most easily controlled through either the Python or
R bindings, using the pysimpactcyan module and RSimpactCyan
package respectively; the way to use them is described below.
The Python bindings are included in the Simpact Cyan package, the R
bindings need to be installed separately from within R.
Apart from this document, there exists some additional documentation as well:
- Documentation of the program code itself can be found here: code documentation.
- A tutorial for using the R bindings: Age-mixing tutorial Bruges 2015
The Simpact Cyan installers, as well as the source code for the program, can be found in the ‘programs’. directory. If you’re using MS-Windows, you’ll need to install the Visual Studio 2015 redistributable package as well (use the x86 version) to be able to use the installed version.
In case you’re interested in running simulations from R,
you’ll need to have a working
Python version installed as well. For MS-Windows this is typically not
installed by default; when installing this it’s best to use the default
directory (e.g. C:\Python27 or C:\Python34).
MaxART documentation¶
The configuration for running MaxART specific simulations is very similar to the core Simpact Cyan features. The things that are different are described in the MaxART documentation.
