Pandemic Simulator

Inspiration

I was inspired by the global effort of social-distancing amongst the outbreak COVID-19.

What it does

This app takes some input data and runs a simulation to show how fast diseases spread.

How I built it

I made a couple classes in java that represented a population of individuals experiencing a pandemic. Using data inputted from the user, the simulation will run over a period of 100 days, recording the number of healthy, infected, and deceased individuals.

Challenges I ran into

Displaying the simulation data in a graphical format was difficult but thankfully I found a very helpful library online.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I am proud that my simulation is very comprehensive of the many different factors involved in pandemics.

What I learned

I learned how to use libraries online to enhance my code.

What's next for Pandemic Simulator

The next improvements I will make to the simulator will be to clean up the formatting in the app, as I was a bit rushed in this area and I think it shows.
