sim-tools is being developed to support simulation education and applied simulation research.  It is MIT licensed and freely available to practitioners, students and researchers via PyPi.  There is a longer term plan to make sim-tools available via conda-forge.

 # Vision for sim-tools

 1. Deliver high quality reliable code for simulation education and practice with full documentation.
 2. Provide a simple to use pythonic interface.
 3. To improve the quality of simulation education and encourage the use of best practice.

# Features:

1. Implementation of classic optimisation via Simulation procedures such as KN, KN++, OBCA and OBCA-m

## Two simple ways to explore sim-tools

1. `pip install sim-tools`
2. Click on the launch-binder at the top of this readme. This will open example Jupyter notebooks in the cloud via Binder.
