	53	+//Level: advanced//
	54	+
	55	+Let’s take a look at a pair of programs that send and receive spikes. These can be used as inputs or outputs to the NEST models we created above with no change to the code. C++ code tends to be somewhat longwinded so we only show the relevant parts here.
	56	+=== [[MUSIC with SLI>>https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/v3.3/tutorials/music_tutorial/music_tutorial_sli.html||rel=" noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]] ===
	57	+
	58	+//Level: advanced//
	59	+
	60	+We won’t discuss the code extensively as learning SLI is really outside the scope of this tutorial. The code follows the same structure as the other examples, and should be straightforward to follow. But we will give a few pointers for how to connect things with MUSIC.
	61	+=== [[Practical tips>>https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/v3.3/tutorials/music_tutorial/music_tutorial_4.html||rel=" noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]] ===

	64	+
	65	+Start MUSIC using mpirun, Disable messages, Comma as decimal point, Build Autotool-enable project

	68	+//Level: advanced//
	69	+
	70	+When you have worked through this material you will be able to:
	71	+Create populations of neurons with specific spatial locations
	72	+Define connectivity profiles between these types of populations
	73	+Connect populations using profiles
	74	+Visualize the connectivity

	79	+The interface is closely modelled on the C++ API; indeed, the steps to use it is almost exactly the same. You can mostly refer to the C++ description for explanation. Below we will only highlight the differences to the C++ API.
