***cadCAD*** is a Python package that assists in the processes of designing, testing and validating complex systems through simulation, with support for Monte Carlo methods, A/B testing and parameter sweeping.
# Getting Started
## 1. Installation:
Requires [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
**Option A: Install Using [pip](https://pypi.org/project/cadCAD/)**
```bash
pip3 install cadCAD
```
**Option B:** Build From Source
```
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
pip3 install dist/*.whl
```
## 2. Learn the basics
**Tutorials:** available both as [Jupyter Notebooks](tutorials)
and [videos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJEiYHRWA9g&list=PLmWm8ksQq4YKtdRV-SoinhV6LbQMgX1we)
Familiarize yourself with some system modelling concepts and cadCAD terminology.
## 3. Documentation:
* [System Model Configuration](documentation/Simulation_Configuration.md)
