2D Newtonian mechanics simulation with data logger

This the 1st complete version of this program.

Still some issues to work out and things that could be expanded upon:

Mainly just random bugs to do with changing scale factor multiple times in a row Objects phase through each other at low speed impacts due to no rest force handling

• Can be added by checking if no change in velocity after collision
• This technically isn't needed for it's purpose of teaching collisions, only for fun p much

Potential changes

Grid spatial partitioning can be used to optimize the collision system

• divide canvas into 3x3 grid, register each object into a grid and only check collision against the objects in the grid (still O(n^2) but with a smaller leading coefficient).
