This is where ill start putting my work:
April 30
Heres what ive been doing this past week, its pretty much just a compilation of everything ive done this semester in one big file, which ive been going through and making a lot nicer and readable. With explainations, documentation, example input.
April 16
Heres what ive been doing this past week, includes monodromy matrix calculations and lyapunov exponent calculations.

So I have know ive missed a few classes now, but I have been working hard, and have a lot of progress now.

I now have a template like file for what i hope to have in the package by the end, along with notes on how i think im going to accomplish these tasks. Also i worked out bifurcation diagrams for the logistic map. Made some very minor adjustments to the testandintro.nb, but nothing of great consequence.
Also, ive signed up to give a lecture at the Hudson River Ungergraduate Mathematics Conference, and submitted a lecture abstract. This is viewable online. The topic of this lecture is the same topic as weve been working on, so i figured you might want to take a look.

Started getting a testing file going, learning what my code can and cant do. Kinda discarded the exact plotting tools i had for a slightly different method. New version of the module, but the best stuff is in the testandintro.nb, should be pretty selfexplanitory at this point.
Feb 12
New versions; having some trouble with time being chopped to mod 2 pi.
Jim talked about automated testing and cutting the code into small enough
chunks that each chunk is easy to test and understand.

The notebook and the module files are essentially the same, however the module has to be in a slightly different format. If you put this module into the mathematica/addons/extra packages/Chaos then you can load the module via the >>"Chaos`Pendulum`" command in mathematica, then for usage ?function for any of the 4 built in functions, PlotGraph, AnimateGraph, SetPendParam, Runge. The notebook file has the same initialization commands as the module however, so if you dont feel like dealing with adding in a new package to you cpu then you can see everything just the same in the notebook file. Anyway thats where im at as a start.
