Detailed Description

Base class of all neurons.

It maintains arrays for incoming and outgoing synapses which can be added by addIncoming() and addOutgoing(). Other neuron types derived from this class should reimplement addIncoming() and addOutgoing() to check wheter we are connecting allowable synapse types.

Public Member Functions

• virtual void reset (void)

  Reset the neuron.
  
  

• virtual int addIncoming (Advancable *s)

  Add an incoming synapse.
  
  

• virtual int addOutgoing (Advancable *s)

  Add an outgoing synapse.
  
  

Public Attributes

• int type

  Type (e.g. inhibitory or excitatory) of the neuron.
  
  

Protected Attributes

• Synapse ** incoming

  A list of incoming synapses.
  
  

• int nIncoming

  Number of incoming synapses.
  
  

• int nIncomingAlloc

  Current size of array (in number of synapses) allocated for incoming synapses.
  
  

• Synapse ** outgoing

  An array of outgoing synapses.
  
  

• int nOutgoing

  Number of outgoing synapses.
  
  

• int nOutgoingAlloc

  Current size of array (in number of synapses) allocated for outgoing synapses.
