Web VPython

Web VPython is an easy-to-use, powerful environment for creating 3D animations and publishing them on the web.

I am in the process of migrating this feed to Mastodon. Watch this space for confirmation when that has happened.

[Juno Apps @junoapps]

⚡️ Juno 2.0 is here! It comes with a *ton* of new features and improvements: better notebook editor, new seamless file browser to navigate working directory, versatile built-in text editor for local files, and much more. Go get it!

If you experience problems with Web VPython’s editor on your iPad or other Apple device, could you please let me know?

I hope your semester is off to a great start! Let us know how you're using Web VPython by tweeting about your activities, labs, assignments, research, etc. and tagging us! The community needs you! #ITeachPhysics

Here is the @WebVPython code (via @trinketapp ) for a standing wave using masses connected by springs

@Rainmaker1973 @WIRED Here is the python code for my recreation of Newton's diagram. You can change the initial velocity and see what happens.

Helpful tip:

Use print_options(digits=n) to print numerical values with n digits by default. Not currently available in VPython 7.

@WebVPython Here is my string of beads (yes, from Mardi Gras) with a flick to make a wave pulse.

THREAD. Here are some comments on @veritasium new #physics circuit video. You can (and should) check it out. Very nice.

Should I make a presence on Mastodon?

[Michael Burns-Kaurin @MBurnsKaurin]

Saw the "four bug" problem today, decided for fun to do a 3-d version with bugs at the corners of a tetrahedron, using @webvpython.

@MBurnsKaurin @fpoodry @WebVPython @emmaphys @SecaurPhysics @rjallain @mrmalvikscience @AMTAteachers @ScienceDave Here is a simple harmonic motion example using glowscript and a Go Direct Motion Detector. This example will probably help more than a 280 character tweet! (note this example uses USB connection)

@fpoodry @emmaphys @SecaurPhysics @rjallain @mrmalvikscience @AMTAteachers @VernierST @ScienceDave Do you know whether it will also work with Web VPython (formerly known as GlowScript)?

[Web VPython @WebVPython]

From Sherwood: When you click "Share or export this program" you now should see a link to download an HTML file containing your transpiled JavaScript program, which can be loaded into a browser and the program should run.

[Web VPython @WebVPython]

NEW: When creating a new program, you should now see "Web VPython 3.2" as the header. The underlying library will still be called the "GlowScript library" and the old GlowScript headers will continue to work.

I made this for my #physics students - a review of data in #python lists (using @WebVPython ) and animated graphs.
