Simple 2D animations?
Hello Scipy users! I'm new here and actually I'm looking for a tool to plot simple 2D animations. I want for example do a simple 2D animation showing earth going around the sun. Another example is to plot x-y animation of lorenz attractor. I would like to have a point which will move with time and possible draw the trail. To give a better idea, here is a simple script: ============================ import Numeric t = 0 i = 0 while 1: t=i/100.0 x=Numeric.sin(t) y=Numeric.sin(t+0.5) print x, y i+=1 ============================ I would like to plot just last (x,y) point. I should get a simple animation, where the (x,y) will move in a graph. Is SciPy the right tool for me? Many thanks for any hint!

You may try import Numeric from scipy import * from scipy.xplt import * import gui_thread xplt.hold('on') t = 0 i = 0 while 1: t=i/100.0 x=Numeric.sin(t) y=Numeric.sin(t+0.5) print x, y xplt.plot(x,y,'b+') xplt.pause(10) i+=1 Nils
Hi Petr, Take a look at Visual Python at http://vpython.org It is a 3-D package and comes with examples of both orbiting masses and a lorentz attractor in 3D. Gary R. Petr Kucera wrote:
