A small double pendulum simulator
Project description
Double Pendulum Using Curses in Python.
A nice relaxing double pendulum simulation using ASCII, able to simulate multiple pendulums at once, and provide tracing of pendulums.
Table of Contents
Features
- As mentioned, able to simulate multiple pendulums at once.
- Able to specify the weight and mass of pendulums to create different butterfly effects.
- Uses equations from here.
- If -s is used, it grabs system specs and displays them (hi r/unixporn)
- Obviously a lot could be done to it (see below the Args), Any contributions are appreciated)
Demo:
Quickstart:
Dependencies: Python 3.2+,curses (standard on UNIX), psutils if you want to use -s

TODO
Note I will not be updating the words on this TODO, but rather just checking them off, as a nice front page reminder of the work done :)
- Add windows functionality
- Add more functionality to arguments (epsilon, weight1, weight2)
- General cleanup of variable names
- Improve efficiency (esp in lists)
- Add colors :)
If you have any suggestions, or anything you'd like to add, just open a PR :)
