FIRE_SERIAL
Forest Fire Simulation, Serial Version {#fire_serial-forest-fire-simulation-serial-version align="center"}

FIRE_SERIAL is a C++ program which simulates a forest fire over a rectangular array of trees, starting at a single random location. It is intended as a starting point for the development of a parallel version.

  • MAIN is the main program for FIRE_SERIAL.
  • FIRE_SPREADS determines whether the fire spreads.
  • FOREST_ALLOCATE allocates memory for a forest of the given size.
  • FOREST_BURNS models a single time step of the burning forest.
  • FOREST_DELETE deletes the memory previously allocated for a forest.
  • FOREST_INITIALIZE initializes the forest values.
  • FOREST_IS_BURNING reports whether any trees in the forest are burning.
  • FOREST_PRINT prints the state of the trees in the forest.
  • GET_PERCENT_BURNED computes the percentage of the forest that burned.
  • SEED_BY_TIME seeds the random number generator using the time as a seed.
  • TIMESTAMP prints the current YMDHMS date as a time stamp.
  • TREE_IGNITE sets a given tree to the SMOLDERING state.
