• Julia allows for not having to always loop through sets through its “broadcasting” (.=). 
  • Policy files do not use broadcasting to simplify and avoid confusion related to the rules of broadcasting.
  • You may see some broadcasting equations still remain in the policy files:

Target .= 0 # where Target is defined by Year 
  • These instances are being modified to eliminate the broadcasting and use loops instead, such as:

for year in Years

  Target[year] = 0

end
