[sumo-dev] understanding code behind SUMO

[Umair Durrani <durraniu@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am writing to get your advice on learning to understand the SUMO code, particularly car-following and lane-changing model implementations (I'm not talking about the actual models).

I'm fairly new to development in C++. Although I've been reading from different resources, I find it hard to understand the code. So, my questions are:

1. Could you please recommend any learning resources in English to better understand the code in SUMO?
2. Is there any documentation on how different elements (e.g. vehicle, vehicle type, lane, etc.) work together?
3. Where should I start (MSVehicle, MSLane, ....) to make sense of it all?

Thank you.

best regards,
