The ABC of macroeconomic agent-based modelling

A fast and easy to use Julia implementation of the model described in Emergent dynamics of a macroeconomic agent based model with capital and credit. The package can be used to simulate the original model or as a base for extensions. If you are not familiar with Julia and the way in which multiple dispatch allows for powerful extensions, don't hesitate to get in touch!

Installation

using Pkg
Pkg.add("ABCredit")

Quick example

using ABCredit

W = 1000 # number of workers
F = 100  # number of consumption firms
N = 20   # number of capital firms

model = ABCredit.initialise_model(W, F, N)

T = 1000 # number of epochs

d = ABCredit.run_one_sim!(model, T)

To plot the results of the simulation, install the Plots package via Pkg.add("Plots") and then run

using Plots

plot(d.Y_real)
