Spartacus Spatially Resolved Artificial Chemistry Simulator
===========================================================

Spartacus is a platform for performing spatially resolved, particle based
simulations of mass spring systems with emphasis on soft condensed matter
systems. Spartacus is written with an educational audience in mind with
emphasis on easy of use and fast model development. Although similar in scope,
the software does not try to compete with large-scale molecular dynamics
simulators (e.g. LAMMPS, Gromacs, and NAMD).

Features
--------

* 2D and 3D simulations
* Brownian dymamics, Langevin dynamics, dissipative particle dynamics
* real-time graphical display
* a plethora of system analyzers
* CSV output for postprocessing data with third party software

Installation
============
