Contributions summary:Eddie made several changes to the Urbansim codebase, focusing on model and simulation logic. They modified the `lcm.py` and `transition.py` files to handle edge cases, such as zero-length agent segments, and other numerical issues. The user also refactored the simulation's `run` method to write data out more efficiently and addressed a typo in the documentation.
