Enum SimulationMode 

pub enum SimulationMode {
    Standard,
    CellByCell,
    RowByRow,
    ChaoticParallel,
    SynchronizedParallel,
    ActorBased,
}

Educational simulation modes demonstrating computing evolution.

Variants

Standard

Standard full-speed mode (no visualization of processing).

CellByCell

Sequential cell-by-cell processing (1950s era). Processes one cell per frame with visual indicator.

RowByRow

Row-by-row vectorized processing (1970s era). Processes one row per frame.

ChaoticParallel

Chaotic parallel without synchronization (1990s era). Shows data races and inconsistent results.

SynchronizedParallel

Synchronized parallel with barriers (2000s era). Shows proper synchronization but with overhead.

ActorBased

Actor/tile-based with HLC (Modern approach). Demonstrates causal consistency with message passing.

Implementations

impl SimulationMode

pub fn all() -> &'static [SimulationMode]

Get all available modes for the UI.

pub fn description(&self) -> &'static str

Get a description of the mode for educational purposes.

pub fn shows_processing(&self) -> bool

Whether this mode shows processing indicators.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for SimulationMode

fn clone(&self) -> SimulationMode

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for SimulationMode

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for SimulationMode

fn default() -> SimulationMode

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl Display for SimulationMode

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for SimulationMode

fn eq(&self, other: &SimulationMode) -> 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 SimulationMode

impl Eq for SimulationMode

impl StructuralPartialEq for SimulationMode
