We are now at @VPython@fosstodon.org. Pardon the clutter as we get set up.

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

⚡️ 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! https://t.co/z3leOKWuIi

I’m co-facilitating an #OPTYCs @WebVPython workshop at #AAPTWM23. If you have an advanced or complex #WebVPython program you wouldn’t mind us using as an exemplar for study would you share a link with me via email? #ITeachPhysics https://t.co/cNRAd1Gwrt

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

New #physics video - modeling the motion of the #ISS @Space_Station with @WebVPython https://t.co/8bTcwbjz9L (debugging included)

Here is the @WebVPython code (via @trinketapp ) for a standing wave using masses connected by springs https://t.co/jYKJYWOuIT

@Rainmaker1973 @WIRED Here is the python code for my recreation of Newton's diagram. You can change the initial velocity and see what happens. https://t.co/Gq2VeEl7C9 @trinketapp @WebVPython

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

Thread 🧵

Thread 🧵

Should I make a presence on Mastodon?

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. https://t.co/mSkTgsPz7x

@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) https://t.co/qsD9ou7Hb2

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.

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. https://t.co/bJWdmaCBSz

Here is the #python code in @trinketapp @WebVPython https://t.co/ioYJ6TiJMZ

Via Sherwood and @sspickle: VPython 7.6.3 has dropped! Currently works w/Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10. To Install: conda install -c vpython vpython or pip install vpython To Update: conda update -c vpython vpython or pip install -U vpython
