Elapsed time

[Jose Pablo Rojas]

Hi, I was intending to use a simulator to do a homework. But I don't really know how to see the exact amount of time that have transcurred. 

How much does a "tic" represent?

Here's the link to the simulator: https://cienciascontic.github.io/simuladores/DDT-NL531.html

Jose,

Thanks for your interest in NetLogo modeling!  This forum is for talking about development of the NetLogo application and other software using its APIs.  For general modeling questions, I recommend using the NetLogo Users group:  https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/netlogo-users

A tick is just a tick, it doesn't represent any particular length of time.  It also doesn't take any definite real-world length of time to execute, it's just a counter that is usually (but not always) updated by the model after one "round" of updates for a model.  Each model can then decide how long a tick is, depending on what's being simulated.

Good luck!
