File Structure:

• ./[src.R] (https://github.com/ercrema/CulturalIncubatorSourceCodes/blob/master/src.R) --> Contains main source code for running all simulations

• ./[experiment1] (https://github.com/ercrema/CulturalIncubatorSourceCodes/blob/master/experiment1) --> Folder containing scripts for executing experiment 1 (experiment1.R) as well as the output used in the paper (experiment1.RData)

• /experiments2_3

  • ./experiments2_3/prepareSweep.R --> script for creating a parameter combinations using Latin HyperCube Sampling

  • ./experiments2_3/sweepExp2.RData --> parameter combinations used for experiment 2, generated with prepareSweep.R

  • ./experiments2_3/sweepExp3.RData --> parameter combinations used for experiment 3, generated with prepareSweep.R

  • ./experiments2_3/submit_* --> script for executing experiments 2 & 3. Notice that this was originally conducted on a cluster as an array job. The scripts are thus not the original codes used to generate the simulation outputs but for illustrattive purpose, showing both a single-threaded version (to be executed on a local machine) and an array version (to be executed on a cluster).

  • ./experiments2_3/results --> folder containing .csv files of the simulation outputs for experiments 2 & 3.
