Demo of agent_choice.

%this function implements the call sequence.  it can be random, or depend
%on timestep explicitly.  the syntax is
%function [agent_number] = agent_choice(ts,pos_vec,state_vec);
%where ts = timestep, a positive integer, and pos_vec and state_vec define
%a configuration

pos_vec = [1 4 7 8 10 11];

%the output of the function is agent_number, the name of the agent being
%called.

%one version of this function is:

n = length(pos_vec) %this computes the number of agents

agent_number = ceil(rand*n) %this function represents random agent choice taken from a uniform distribution

n =

     6


agent_number =

     6
