       | available)

       | (Santa Fe Institute) it is a very gentle introduction to the
       | subject. There is a online MOOC class, or you can just watch the
       | lectures and play with the app. It makes use of NetLogo. NetLogo
       | is kind of horrible if you come from a programming background,
       | but if you can suppress the constant annoyances of the syntax,
       | grammar and the enormity of the builtin keywords/functions (and
       | it does require some effort) you'll discover that you can build
       | and visualize some pretty neat models very quickly with very
       | little code.

         | Is this a different meaning of the word "complexity"?
