Initial setup of project.

pip install nengo

Then move to a shell and navigate to the git folder for the project.

nengo

Wait until Nengo opens a web browser. Once the browser is open, click on recurrent_inhibit.py file in the file navigator on the left hand side.

Comment or uncomment code in the file editor and press the simulate button to see how it works.

Or, open a python interpeter (I use pyCharm) and open experiment_outline.py. Press Build and Run to create new png files for 3 new plots based on experiment_outline.py

*Most of the project is now completed with ngspice instead of nengo.

Why? Because Nengo was going to take days to simulate at the timescales I needed, and also since it is out of the box prepackaged for biological neuron timescales, I did not want to risk accidentally missing a parameter to change. Also, ngspice was easier for me.
