Functions

computeNeighborhood

abstract fun computeNeighborhood(center: Node<T>, environment: Environment<T, P>): Neighborhood<T>

Produces a new neighborhood for specified node considering its position.

isLocallyConsistent

abstract fun isLocallyConsistent(): Boolean

Some rules may require to be evaluated against multiple nodes until the situations gets consistent.
