Organic Builder

Organic Builder is a fascinating program that allows users to explore an artificial chemistry. The program presents each circle as an atom that floats and can bond with other atoms to create a molecule. Unlike real chemistry, which has complex bonding rules, Organic Builder uses simple rules such as a0 + b0 => a1b2. The program employs arbitrary letters like 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd' and 'e' instead of the traditional atomic types found in nature.

In real chemistry, the reactions are written with atomic types that react based on charge, valency, and shape. However, with Organic Builder, the state number, which includes 0, 1, 2 and so on, decides whether the reactants match. For example, the reaction 6*(CO2) + 6*(H2O) + light => C6H12O6 + 6*(O2) in the program will involve two atoms, a0 and b0, bonding to create a molecule. As a result, the 'a' atom takes on state 1, while the 'b' atom takes on state 2. It does not matter if the atoms are bonded to different atoms during the process.

The atoms in Organic Builder cannot change type, but only their states, unlike in real chemistry. The program is useful for new chemistry enthusiasts who wish to understand how atoms bond and how to create certain molecules like glucose and oxygen. Organic Builder software provides valuable insight into the basics of artificial chemistry and is incredibly fun and informative to use.
