OK, say you have a 3-d surface, what is the path a ball bearing with a particular momentum takes over time. Can you display that: the 3-D surface, the position as an animation? Sure you can. VPython gives you all the display capabilities you need. Start with 2-D and an straight line. Then move either to a more complex curve or 3-D next. The reason for using VPython is to get 3-D solved for you so you can work on the position and momentum updates. It even will do anaglyph (colored glasses) and cross-eyed 3-D rendering, though the default is to simply give you a 2-D window into the 3-D world. If you do this, you might play with designing a virtual skate park. --Scott David Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
