Locate agents to buildings by wight

[OSPOKomIT]

Hello everyone,
I am currently trying to build my first model to simulate the movement of schoolkids. I have data on students per city area and would like to distribute my agents accordingly. I am building on the Road Traffic model and am now looking for an alternative to
living_place <- one_of(residential_buildings)
Your help would be great
Best

Dear, Could you be more specific on the alternative you need ? what do you want to do ? one_of returns 1 random element, you also have among operator (n among building) to return several building ... Cheers Benoit Le jeu. 1 août 2024 à 17:37, OSPOKomIT ***@***.***> a écrit :

Hey,

thanks alot for your replay.
I specify:

I create some students:

    create students number: nb_students{
        speed <- rnd(min_speed_low, max_speed_low);
        start_school <- rnd(min_school_start, max_school_start);
        end_school <- rnd(min_school_end, max_school_end);
        living_place <- one_of(residential_buildings);
        school <- one_of(educational_buildings);
        objective <- "study";
        location <- any_location_in(living_place);

this will give a student agent a random living place of a random element of residential_buildings, correct?
I want now to steer the number of students living in a certain residential_buildings because I have a distribution of students living in different areas. Such as: 60% of students living in area 1 --> distribute my student agents in a similar manner. So I could say something like: n students among residential_buildingsXY, correct ?

Hi, n among residential_buildings would rather compute a list of N random buildings. If you want to create N students living in building residential_buildingsXY, you can simply select the building first, and locate all you N student agents in this building : residential_buildings residential_buildingsXY <- compute the residential building in which you have N students; create students *number: N {* speed <- rnd(min_speed_low, max_speed_low); start_school <- rnd(min_school_start, max_school_start); end_school <- rnd(min_school_end, max_school_end);* living_place <- residential_buildingsXY ;* school <- one_of(educational_buildings); objective <- "study"; location <- any_location_in(living_place); you can imagine having a data structure associating to each residential_building the amount of students living in it, and loop over this dictionary to create the number of agents associated to this building.
