I almost forgot this one: http://www.antoniobarba.org/2013/04/09/particle-simulation-su-commodore-64-blog005/
(sei italiano, giusto?)

It's a very simple example of a Runge-Kutta (EDIT: wrong, in the end I used a Verlet-Størmer integrator) that I've implemented on the Commodore 64 in fixed point math in a few hours Big Grin

Very compliments, Antonio!

no, io capisco solo Siciliano :-)
maybe Pier can understand Italian (a language like Siciliano, neolatin speak...)

That reminds me of a boss I had once. He mentioned that he's Sicilian and I told him, "Gee, and I thought you were Italian." He laughed and said, "No, I'm better than Italian!"

Actually we do *are* Italians, but we live in an island, and islands are ...different, so...
Anyway, we love to joke with those linguistic differences.

At the time I worked on real time physics simulation for a well known game company (I worked on the physics simulations of racing bikes and cars, damage simulation, heat dissipation and other stuff), so most of my experiments were half work and half hobby so I couldn't publish the whole thing. Basically it's gone, but if you like to study the subject I have still several resources which provide very good example code.

EDIT: another strange platform I worked on was the IBM Cell, a beast for vector calculations, used inside the Sony PS3!

Ah what a pity. Open knowledge is always great.

Anyway yes, please share the resource links if you still have them. Sharing is caring Smile

And thanks for the link in the other post.
