============================
Flocking3D.java


-----
Compilation

$ javac *.java

-----
Execution: use the Flocking3D.bat batch file

There can be up to three arguments which set the number of
predators, prey, and obstacles. Usually, we have no arguments
(then the default values are used) or set all three.

BNF format for the arguments:

$ Flocking3D [ NumPredators [ NumPrey [NumObstacles] ] ]

e.g.

$ Flocking3D
- means use the defaults, 40 predators, 160 prey, 20 obstacles


$ Flocking3D 10 200 15
- means 10 predators, 200 prey, 15 obstacles


$ Flocking3D 1 30
- means use 1 predator, 30 prey (and 20 obstacles)
