"""Utilities that capture the "Iterative Math-Build Loop" workflow.

This module turns a simple mathematical seed—the logistic map—into a tiny
experiment that can be iterated forever.  The workflow mirrors Block 43:

Step 1 (Seed)
    Use the logistic function :math:`x_{n+1} = r x_n (1 - x_n)` as the pattern.

Step 2 (Three translations)
    Physics
        Population dynamics where energy input (sunlight, nutrients) is limited.
    Code
        A feedback loop that maps the state into itself with a tunable gain.
    Hardware
        A single-transistor logistic oscillator driven by a biasing envelope.

Step 3 (Build a toy)
    Simulate the logistic loop over a configurable number of pulses.

Step 4 (Measure & rename)
    Rename raw variables once we observe their behaviour: ``population`` becomes
    ``pulse_level`` and ``r`` becomes ``gain`` to match the oscillation view.

Step 5 (Archive & fork)
    Export snapshots that carry timestamped tags ready for storage.
