Ant Routing simulation

LN Ant Routing algorithm simulation using NetworkX and Python.
The logic is based on https://github.com/LNantfarm/ant-routing-simul

How to use

Import Network class from antrouting.py

from antrouting import Network

To create your network, defines all connections between nodes. Alice is node 0 and Bob is the max index node

connections = [
    (0,1),
    (1,2),
    (2,3),
    (3,4),
    (1,3),
    (4,5)
]
#Here, Alice is node 0, Bob is node 5

Create a network object from the Network class

network = Network(connections)

Display the network

network.display()

Calculate the shortest path

network.find_shortest_path()

Check example.py to get an example on how to use the simulation.

Room for improvement

The network creation is not really user friendly, an improvement could be done here. For example, an easy way of creating the network would be to draw the network in Polar, and automatically translate it to a list of connections.
