Mech Control Calculator

How to use

Download the repository or git clone https://github.com/AfterAStorm/MechControlCalculator.git

Run __main__.pyw via your prefered method

• Edit X, Y, and Z calculations via the entries
• See visualizations in the middle and top right corner
• Edit time scale/step with the two sliders respectively

Equation Operators

• + -> You'll never add this up
• - -> Subtraction
• * -> Multiplication
• / -> Division
• ^ -> Pow, to the power of

Equation variables

Variables to use in equations

• dt -> delta time, the current time, goes from 0 - 1, forever, snapping from 1 to 0 each loop

• pi -> pi

• tau -> pi * 2

Equation methods

• findKnee(angle) (angle: radians) -> find the y value to make the knee angle exactly angle

• sin(angle) (angle: radians) -> sine

• cos(angle) (angle: radians) -> cosine

• tan(angle) (angle: radians) -> tangent

• asin(angle) (x: ratio) -> arcsine

• acos(angle) (x: ratio) -> arccosine

• atan(angle) (x: ratio) -> arctangent

• asinh(angle) (x: ratio) -> hyperbolic arcsine

• acosh(angle) (x: ratio) -> hyperbolic arccosine

• atanh(angle) (x: ratio) -> hyperbolic arctangent

• atan2(y, x) (y & x: number) -> arctanget of y/x, signs are considered (lookup python3 atan2)

• ceil(x) (x: number) -> round ceiling aka round up

• floor(x) (x: number) -> round floor aka round down

• sqrt(x) (x: number) -> square root

• sign(x) (x: number) -> the sign of the number

  • >0 = 1
  • 0 = 0
  • <0 = -1

• pow(x, y) (x & y: number) -> x to the power of y, same as x ^ y

• max(x, y) (x & y: number) -> the maximum of two numbers

• min(x, y) (x & y: number) -> the minimum of two numbers

• deg(rad) (rad: radians) -> convert radians to degrees aka rad * (180 / pi)

• rad(deg) (deg: degrees) -> convert degrees to radians aka deg * (pi / 180)
