Detailed Description

The NeuronEngine class is a common engine used by most neurons.

Neurons have common properties such as the resting membrane potential, possible synaptic input and a voltage. Currents are responsible for changes to the voltage.

NodeEngine holds a list of all children added in QML. In stepEvent() all the children are iterated, and if they contain a Current object, the Current::current() function is called to obtain the current value of the given current. The Current class can be subclassed in C++ or QML to define different types of currents, such as PassiveCurrent and AdaptationCurrent.
