Linhares and I are planning to use this codebase to implement a variation of Copycat that uses *Entropy* instead of *Temperature*, while still preserving the parallel terraced scan in full form. If the change is viable, I plan to write a paper on that (if anyone is interested in co-authoring, let me know). For the general idea, please see pages 41 and 42 of the [*Information Sciences*](https://github.com/Alex-Linhares/FARGlexandria/blob/master/Literature/Chess-Capyblanca-2014-Linhares-Information%20Sciences.pdf) paper on [Capyblanca](https://github.com/Alex-Linhares/FARGlexandria).
**If you would like to help research and publish a paper, please let me know.**
Please see also [FARGlexandria](https://github.com/Alex-Linhares/FARGlexandria), a repository with all FARG projects (and help if you have some of the missing info there, especially about Letter Spirit and George!)

An implementation of [Douglas Hofstadter](http://prelectur.stanford.edu/lecturers/hofstadter/)'s Copycat algorithm.
The Copycat algorithm is explained [on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copycat_%28software%29), and that page has many links for deeper reading.

This implementation is a copycat of Scott Boland's [Java implementation](https://archive.org/details/JavaCopycat).
The original Java-to-Python translation work was done by J Alan Brogan (@jalanb on GitHub).

The result of `run` is a dict containing the same information as was printed by `main.py` above.

1. Why are codelets **NOT** implemented through lambda?
