This simple script was inspired by one of the Feynman lecture about Newton's law of dynamics. The aim is to show that just with the laws of motion and a basic numerical method is possible to find an approximate solution of a tremendously complex problem.
The theory can be found in the lecture:
Newton’s Laws of Dynamics
9–6 Numerical solution of the equations
