Example: remotecontrolserver (misc)
===================================

Example of using :class:`RemoteControlServer` and :class:`RemoteControlClient`
to control a simulation as it runs in Brian.

After running this script, run remotecontrolclient.py or paste the code from
that script into an IPython shell for interactive control.

::

    from brian import *
    
    eqs = '''
    dV/dt = (I-V)/(10*ms)+0.1*xi*(2/(10*ms))**.5 : 1
    I : 1
    '''
    
    G = NeuronGroup(3, eqs, reset=0, threshold=1)
    M = RecentStateMonitor(G, 'V', duration=50*ms)
    
    server = RemoteControlServer()
    
    run(1e10*second)
