Traffic Light Simulation with Ruby
Today, I want to share an interesting project I found on GitHub: traffic_light. It’s a simulation of a traffic light controller, implemented in Ruby.
The project uses Ruby’s
Fibersfor concurrency and theCurseslibrary for a terminal-based graphical interface. It’s a great example of how to use these technologies to create a simple simulation.The core of the simulation is a state machine that defines the different states of the traffic lights (red, green, yellow). The state transitions are managed by the Fibers, which are lightweight concurrency primitives in Ruby.
