A simple, text-based crowdfunding simulator. Run a group of projects through a
series of funding rounds, in which they either receive or lose funds, or are
skipped. They also receive a random pledge. Grant projects never lose funds.
Match projects have all future funding matched after they reach half-funding.
Statistics are printed to the console at the end of the simulation.
The normal projects can be specified in a '.csv' file that is given as a command
line argument when loading the program, or the default projects can be used. The
format for 'csv' entries is Project Name,Goal,Initial_funding with a comma and
no spaces between entries and underscores in place of commas within larger
numbers (e.g. Your Project,10_000,0).
The option is given to save a list of underfunded projects upon exiting the
program. The list is saved in 'underfunded.txt' in the top-level folder of the
application.
Created as a bonus project while completing the Pragmatic Studio Ruby
Programming course.
