pyflies 0.2

A DSL for modeling cognitive psychology experiments

pyFlies is a domain-specific language (DSL) for cognitive experiments modeling. It is meant to be simple to learn and readable.

A code for various run-time platforms can be generated from the experiment description. Futhermore, model can be directly interpreted if the run-time supports pyFlies.
