is identical to example 2 with the exception that files containing information on each object in the simulation will be saved to a folder named "Simulation_data" within the "Output-4example" folder. Since each file can be very large, objects are divided into seeds, plants and corpses, and are saved to appropriate subfolders. When one uses the -f a command, Vida takes the additional step to generate statistical summary files from the individual data files.

Vida saves the data for the final iteration a simulation by default. This is the equivilant to using the command -fe. If one didn't want to save any data files, one would use the -f n command.
Vida saves the data for the final iteration a simulation by default. This is the equivalent to using the command -f e. If one didn't want to save any data files, one would use the -f n command.

In addition to saving graphical files, data files, and statistical files, Vida can save the state of iterations so that one could resume a simulation from a known point. The default setting for Vida is to save the final iteration of a simulation. This is the equivilant to saying:
