NGC-Sim-Lib: Support Library for NGC-Learn

ngc-sim-lib is the support library backend and central dependency for ngc-learn, a library designed for computational neuroscience and cognitive neuroscience research. While ngc-learn contains the JAX-implemented routines and any supporting C code, ngc-sim-lib is a pure Python package, primarily meant for providing the machinery, routines, and utilities that facilitate the general (abstract) simulation of complex adaptive systems made up of dynamical components. For information, including anything related to usage instructions and details, please refer to the ngc-learn README: https://github.com/NACLab/ngc-learn/.
