That I start with an object approach, because that is what I am familiar with and have used in the past. Then find new ways of thinking about the problem through through functional and Clojure programming. I think a good starting point, is as you recommend, substitute maps for objects in my thinking in the problem domain. I can see that I could actually set-up the simulation just so, and I will have completely captured the model, frozen at time t=0. Then my challenge is to write a set of functions that will transition the model to time t+1. At that point I am done.
