Description

As a new person to Julia these were some problems I encountered while working through the documentation.

When trying to create the Tippetop from the Documentation under "Defining a Mechanism" there are several functions that seem to be modified leading to errors and some information that could included for clarity:

  1. Dependencies are unclear
  • Must add LinearAlgebra for new mechanism to access Diagonal function
  • gray_light is not exported by Dojo.jl Available color functions: cyan, orange, magenta
  • Must import Dojo.set_minimal_coordinates_velocities!
  1. Simulation does not match video
  • The default values for initialize_tippetop! do not generate the cool spinning video, it would be nice if those parameters were included in the documentation as well.
