In only a few lines of code you can customize and simulate a network of leaky integrate and fire neurons (LIF). This function facilitates quick testing of network architectures. The network can be simple, only specifying the weights of the connections between neurons, or complex with options ranging from offset currents, refractory periods, speed of synaptic transmission, noise, etc.
Usage notes, extensive examples, and sources are given in the help.
