Simple pendulum simulation with rational trigonometry
Context: I'm looking at Norman Wildberger's rational trigonometry[1], and here I was wondering how useful it is in physics. So I thought about testing it with the famous simple pendulum exercise. It's not obvious we get any FPS gain, but still I find it cool to even be able to get the same result differently. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_trigonometry

This is a little toy project of mine that lets you simulate digital logic graphs. It was inspired by Minecraft's Redstone and the Piet esolang. It's got some serious drawbacks-- you write circuits as PNGs and simulate them with a Python interface. It's slow to run and slow to experiment with. And it is certainly difficult to use for people with any kind of color blindness. But despite that, I hope this can still be a fun toy!
