Variables

χ: prey population ?The initial prey population within the simulation. The initial prey population within the simulation. γ: predator population ?The initial predator population within the simulation. The initial predator population within the simulation. α: prey per capita birth rate (0 - 2 recommended) ?The amount of prey born per living prey. The amount of prey born per living prey. τ: time simulated ?The amount of time units that are simulated. Within this simulation, the change in populations is calculated one hundred times per time unit. The amount of time units that are simulated. Within this simulation, the change in populations is calculated one hundred times per time unit. β: predation rate (0 - 1) ?The number of prey each predator consumes relative to the predator population multiplied by the prey population. The number of prey each predator consumes relative to the predator population multiplied by the prey population. ϒ: predator per capita death rate (0 - 2 recommended) ?How many predators die per living predator. How many predators die per living predator. δ: predator conversion efficiency (0 - 1) ?How many new predators are born per prey consumed. How many new predators are born per prey consumed. Simulate
