The Dining Philosophers
What are they doing?
Use:
Select what sounds the philosophers make using the top menu.
Change the sliders to adjust the probability of any one philosopher
continuing eating or thinking (set eating to 100% to see starvation).
The speed slider adjusts how long a delay is put in between thougts
(move it to the right to slow down).
Click the "show sticks" checkbox to see who has the chopsticks. The red one is the "magic" one.
If the philosophers don't show up after a while, try resizing the window, they may appear.
