[Visualpython-users] Phun & VPython

[Joel K. <jj...@ya...>]

Tom Bortels is right: Phun has a lot more power than
Crayon Physics does. Precisely for this reason, I
think Phun presents an even stronger case for trying
out the 2D ==> 3D adaptation I was thinking of in
connecting Crayon Physics with VPython. Converting that
"liquify" function in Phun to a 3D VPython equivalent
could be a particularly interesting challenge for
high school & college level programming students;
my guess is that there would not be one single "best"
way to do it, but rather many possible approaches
that would be worth looking at. . . .
