🗺 World Simulation Challenge (inspired by Francesco Cesarini's Erlang programming concepts). The world is inhabited by carrots that grow from the earth, rabbits that feed on carrots, and wolves that hunt rabbits in an intricate food chain.

🐰 The Rabbits, Wolves, and Carrots' World 🐺

The world is inhabited by carrots, rabbits, and wolves! 🌎

World Problem

Rabbits would roam this world eating car- rots that grew in random patches. When they had eaten enough carrots, the rabbits would get fat and split in two. Wolves ran around eating up the rabbits; if they managed to catch and eat enough rabbits, they would also get fat and split. Rabbits and wolves within a certain distance of each other would broadcast information on food and predators. If a rabbit found a carrot patch, other rabbits would quickly join him. If a wolf found a rabbit, the pack would start chasing it.
