Re: Calculating Angle to fire at

if anyone uses mathematica, here's a notebook to generate ballistic lookup tables..

initial values are declared at the top, target height is deltah (3.5 ft or whatever) * ft-> meter conversion.

all values should be done in metric.. at the end, just display the contents (or export to CSV) and load em onto the bot.

I'm sure a few of you'll figgure out some more inventive uses..

<-- currently working on a 3-dimentional version.

No, I'm not a programmer.
