This simulator was developed as a final project for the USC PHYS-304 Classical Mechanics class. This project was designed to be a simple, yet powerful, tool to simulate the N-Body problem. For more information about this project see the PDF located in the root of this repository: Simulating_the_N-Body_Problem_in_Python.pdf.
Additionally, a demo of the program can be found on youtube: PHYS304 N-Body Simulation Demo
To run the program each of the following dependencies will need to be installed.
Install Numpy:
python3 -m pip install numpy
Install MatPlotLib
python3 -m pip install matplotlib
python3 -m pip install scipy
python3 -m pip install scipy
python3 -m pip install pyglet
python3 -m pip install pyglet
Once the dependencies have been installed the simulator can be run by executing the python main.py file found in the /src folder. Ie: $ python3 src/main.py
