We will be exploring learning physics through making animations and games. Physics is used extensively in animations and games; without getting the physics right, you can't make a realistic movie. We will try to keep the technical side of the course as easy as possible, but some programming is inevitable. The main language we use will be
Python, which is a very high-level scripting language (you can read more at
http://www.python.org). We will use python with the vpython extensions (http://www.vpython.org) and as a scripting language in Blender (www.blender3d.com), a free animation software package.
