Chapter 16: Introducing DisSModel¶

Part III — Discrete Spatial Modeling

Learning Objectives¶

By the end of this chapter you will be able to:

• Understand the dual-substrate paradigm (vector and raster)
• Navigate the dissmodel class hierarchy
• Run Game of Life on both substrates with the same salabim environment

{note}
Show the two env.run() blocks side by side — the symmetry is the key insight. Reference the benchmark from Ch 13.
