::: This Python version is readable and it doesn't have obstacles. http://code.activestate.com/recipes/502240-boids-version-11/ Removing the GUI code it's about 120 lines of non-comment Python code. Is this too much for a RosettaCode Task? |

::::It's not very good practice to rely on code as an explanation for an entire task. Explaining things in English, pseudocode, or diagrams/tables is preferred. Not everybody can read Python (including me). --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 04:27, 8 January 2013 (UTC) |

::: A few things would be helpful: |
|||
:::# What each bird would consider its ''local'' flock; |
|||
:::# How much does individuals in a local flock affect a bird's steering (how close is crowded, by how much does a bird adjust its current heading to fit into its local flock, etc) |
|||
:::# You asked for the birds to fly from left to right and avoid obstacles, again how much does each weigh in each bird's steering consideration. |

::: I haven't looked into it carefully, but I think these should be mandated by the task for consistent implementations. Also it's questionable if a console text representation has enough spatial resolution to make the simulation workable, but that's a separate issue. --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 07:16, 8 January 2013 (UTC) |
