This section provides a step-by-step description of the sample models provided in the ANNarchy package in the ``examples/`` directory.

    * :doc:`example/NeuralField`:  a simple model using `neural field <http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Neural_fields>`_ recurrent networks. This is a very simple rate-coded model without learning.
    
    * :doc:`example/BarLearning`: an implementation of the bar learning problem, illustrating the synaptic plasticity in rate-coded networks. 
    
    * :doc:`example/Izhikevich`: an implementation of the simple pulse-coupled network described in (Izhikevich, 2003). It shows how to build a simple spiking network without synaptic plasticity.
    
    * :doc:`example/STDP`: an example using spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP).
