Introduction
===========================

The April project[2] defines a set of C++ objects (World, Actor, Sensor, Reflex,
Brain, Actuator, Event) that help simulate various environments.

The world has an amount of energy that the user may use to create Actors and
components while Actors may also create other Actors from their own energy.

The code is structured in several layers:
- april-core simply defines the library and the objects
- april-gui builds on the concepts in april-core, giving a visual
interpretation to the concepts
- AprilDream is a GUI program that uses april-gui objects to display a World in
evolution.

The code base also contains a test suite based on Google test and a set of
ever-growing commented examples.
