RobertManningSmith commented 3 months ago

This pull request makes two changes,

The first is that the simulation object no has fewer parameters, with simulation options being read into the file via the parameters, rather than being specifically declared.

The next change is where possible, string variable have been replaced with various enums. In the person object, sex and occupations are now enums. They are read in from the census file as strings but are then converted into enums when the person object is created.

Behaviour nodes, as well as the tests which use the names of behaviour nodes (infectious behaviour testing) now make used of enums throughout, with no defining of Strings which could lead to error
