There are 3 seller agents. Each of these agents loads it's catalog from separate json files provided in resources/catalog.
The number of buyer agents depends on the input file purchase_list.txt which is also included in resources. Each line of the input file contains titles of 3 books and a buyer agent is created for each line. The buyer agent is responsible of buying 3 books listed in the corresponding line. The number of lines in purchase_list.txt and titles in each line are not fixed. Adding more lines will start more buyers and the buyers are able to handle purchase of any number books passed in argument.
