Description: 
        cadCAD (complex adaptive systems computer-aided design) is a python based, unified modeling framework for stochastic 
        dynamical systems and differential games for research, validation, and Computer Aided Design of economic systems created 
        by BlockScience. It is capable of modeling systems at all levels of abstraction from Agent Based Modeling (ABM) to 
        System Dynamics (SD), and enabling smooth integration of computational social science simulations with empirical data 
        science workflows.
        
        An economic system is treated as a state-based model and defined through a set of endogenous and exogenous state 
        variables which are updated through mechanisms and environmental processes, respectively. Behavioral models, which may 
        be deterministic or stochastic, provide the evolution of the system within the action space of the mechanisms. 
        Mathematical formulations of these economic games treat agent utility as derived from the state rather than direct from 
        an action, creating a rich, dynamic modeling framework. Simulations may be run with a range of initial conditions and 
        parameters for states, behaviors, mechanisms, and environmental processes to understand and visualize network behavior 
        under various conditions. Support for A/B testing policies, Monte Carlo analysis, and other common numerical methods is 
        provided.
