Project Description
SIMULATION OF AN ELLIPTICAL BILLARD In one of his books, the polish mathematician Hugo Steinhaus outlines the idea of an elliptical billard table! He distinguishes three cases of trajectory, depending on throwing the ball: 1) between the two focuses of the ellipse, 2) between one focus and the edge of the billard, 3) passing through a focus. This program allows to visualize the envelope of trajectories in the three cases with a limitation of 100 rebounds. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From "Graphisme dans le plan et dans l'espace avec Turbo Pascal 4.0 By R.
