Method Details

groupScores

double groupScores(double me,
 double[] groupTraits,
 int len,
 double[] groupPayoffs)

Calculate the payoff/score for modules with interactions in groups and a single continuous trait. The focal individual has trait me and the traits of its len interaction partners are given in group. The payoffs/scores for each of the len participants must be stored and returned in the array payoffs.

Note:

Only the first len*nTraits entries in group are guaranteed to exist and have meaningful values. The population structure may restrict the size of the interaction group. len≤nGroup always holds.

Important:

Must be overridden and implemented in subclasses that define game interactions among groups of individuals with multiple continuous traits (for groups with sizes nGroup>2, otherwise see IBS.HasIBS.CPairs.pairScores(double, double[], int, double[])).

Parameters:

me - the trait of the focal individual

groupTraits - the traits of the group members

len - the number of members in the group

groupPayoffs - the array for returning the payoffs/scores for each group member

Returns:

the payoff/score for the focal individual
