## Example usage

Find below an illustrative social simulation with 5 players which simulates the
day of mayoral elections in an imaginary town caller Riverbend. First two
players, Alice and Bob, are running for mayor. The third player, Charlie,
is trying to ruin Alice's reputation with disinformation. The last two players
have no specific agenda, apart from voting in the election.
Find below an illustrative social simulation where 4 friends are stuck in a
snowed in pub. Two of them have a dispute over a crashed car.

The agents are built using a simple reasoning inspired by March and Olsen (2011)
who posit that humans generally act as though they choose their actions by
answering three key questions:

1. What kind of situation is this?
2. What kind of person am I?
3. What does a person such as I do in a situation such as this?

The agents used in this example implement exactly these components, and nothing
else.
