Examples¶

Suggested learning path¶

Work through these in order. Each step builds on the previous one.

1. Understand the concepts¶

2. Create your first package¶

Follow Create your first package to generate a skeleton, compile it, and run it under a Sen kernel.

3. Work through the examples¶

The examples are numbered and ordered by complexity. Follow them in sequence:

#	Example	What you learn
1	Calculators	Basic package, multiple implementations, shell interaction
2	Inheritance	STL inheritance, template injection
3	Aircraft	HLA FOMs, `update()` loop, virtual time
4	School	Object discovery, events, multi-component
6	Recorder	Recording, Python post-processing
7	Replayer	Replay with real-time and stepped execution
8	InfluxDB	Grafana visualisation
9	HLA Servers	Request/response servers
10	Python	Embedded Python scripting
11	Shapes	Interest management, Sen Query Language
12	Fibonacci	Deferred methods, load balancing
13	Timer	Checked properties, state validation

4. Go deeper with the how-to guides¶

Once you are comfortable with the examples, the How-To Guides cover specific topics in depth: working with objects, generated code, logging, dead reckoning, and more.

Reference material¶
