# Command: ResetKernel

NEST HelpDesk | Command Index | NEST Quick Reference

Name:

    ResetKernel - Put the simulation kernel back to its initial state.

Description:

      This function re-initializes the simulation kernel, returning it to the
      same state as after NEST has started.
      In particular,
     	- all network nodes
     	- all connections
     	- all user-defined neuron and synapse models
      are deleted, and
     	- time
     	- random generators
      are reset. The only exception is that dynamically loaded modules are not
      unloaded. This may change in a future version of NEST. The SLI interpreter
      is not affected by ResetKernel.
