Flocking Boids

Hello all,

Inspired by a class I am taking at the university, I decided to make a boids flocking simulation.  The boids will fly toward the green target and away from the mouse.  For those of you who do not know what a boid is, it is a simulation of bird that is used for modeling flocking behavior.  Check it out at http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~janzenr/Projects/Flocking_Mouse/applet/index.html

I had to keep the numbers down for the browser, but it can about 500 boids (with OpenGL) on a 2.2Ghz P4.

Comments welcome!
