statistics - Netlogo model result conveying method -
i have designed netlogo model outputs number of turtles in each run. number of turtles increases ticks , becomes constant value n. run model 50 times , have data 50 different n values varying 9 12. have report result graph showing number of turtles increasing ticks. 1 simulation become constant @ 9 (n = 9) , other become constant @ 10 (n = 10).
for simulation out of 50, should draw graph for? or should take average of 50 values each tick, , draw graph that?
what right approach convey in result, confirmed 50 simulations, number of turtles increases ticks , becomes constant (which varies in range of (9 - 12) different simulations) ?
thank you.
the point of doing multiple simulations average out stochastic effects. without seeing data, appropriate graph 1 averages variable of interest (eg final turtle count, or turtle count @ each tick). average should taken across simulations running same scenario (that is, have same starting parameters) if want compare scenarios.
