Package for N-body problem, and RC3BP

Project description

nbodypy : N-Body Python Class

Authors:

Purpose

We are in development, and this is the beginning of the project! It is a beta version of the module.

The package provides tools for studying the N-body problem. It provides a sub package concerning the Restricted Circular Three Body Problem, with the computation of periodic orbit around Libration points and associated invariant manifolds.

Installation

Warning: Python 3.6 (>) package!

pip

pip install nbodypy

PYTHONPATH

PYTHONPATH sets the search path for importing python modules. So, a reasonable way to use nbodypy is to install it using the PYTHONPATH mechanism.

Suppose that we have a directory in which we want to put all the local python package or modules: /home/LOGIN/the/path.

You can export this directory to the environment variable PYTHONPATH (in your .bashrc for example) :

export PYTHONPATH=/home/LOGIN/the/path:$PYTHONPATH

Add the nbodypy directory

After doing that, you just have to add the nbodypy directory of the git repository (containing the python files) in the python directory:

/home/LOGIN/the/path/nbodypy
