When you have compiled the program using the build instructions, you can run it from the src folder without arguments to use the default configuration. Alternatively you can specify two command-line arguments: the configuration file path and the output folder path.
./planetary-motion /path/to/config.txt /path/to/output_folder
The program can also be directly run from the Python script to get the advanced plotting functionality. The Python script will also take care of the compilation, provided that you have installed all the necessary libraries.
python3 main.py
The first line of the configuration file should be planetary-motion configuration.
There should be two sections: [scalars] and [arrays].
Scalars should be specified by name = value and arrays should have their names on separate rows
with data directly on the following rows.
Empty lines and lines starting with # and ; are ignored.
Please see the example config.txt in this folder for a detailed listing of the parameters.
