Struct Axon 

pub struct Axon {
    pub terminal: [f32; 3],
    pub myelin: u8,
    pub health: u8,
}

Transmission apparatus — carries signal to targets.

Fields

terminal: [f32; 3]

Where the axon ends (target region)

myelin: u8

Myelination level (0=unmyelinated, 255=fully myelinated) Higher myelin = faster conduction, better protection from decay

health: u8

Survival pressure (0=dead/pruned, 255=maximally healthy) Decays when inactive, boosted when carrying spikes

Implementations

impl Axon

pub const fn toward(terminal: [f32; 3]) -> Self

Create an axon pointing toward a target.

pub const fn myelinated(terminal: [f32; 3], myelin: u8) -> Self

Create a healthy, myelinated axon.

pub fn length(&self, soma_pos: [f32; 3]) -> f32

Compute axon length from soma position.

pub const fn is_alive(&self) -> bool

Is this axon alive (health > 0)?

pub const fn is_myelinated(&self) -> bool

Is this axon myelinated?

pub fn decay(&mut self, amount: u8)

Apply health decay (when inactive).

pub fn boost(&mut self, amount: u8)

Boost health (when carrying spikes).

pub fn myelinate(&mut self, amount: u8)

Apply myelination (gradual process based on myelin_affinity).

pub fn retract_toward(&mut self, soma_pos: [f32; 3], fraction: f32)

Retract axon toward soma by a fraction.

pub fn extend_toward(&mut self, target: [f32; 3], step: f32)

Extend axon away from soma toward target.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Axon

fn clone(&self) -> Axon

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Axon

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for Axon

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl PartialEq for Axon

fn eq(&self, other: &Axon) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Copy for Axon
