# Photon
## Introduction
A simple python script for simulating a photon moving through
2D space and reflecting off circular mirrors with integer center
coordinates and radius of `1/3`.
It was created as a project for the [DisCont mathematics 2](https://www.fer.unizg.hr/en/course/dismat2)
course at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb.
## Installation
Requires at least `python 3.6`.
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Usage
```
python photon.py
```
## Default Simulation
* Initial position: `(0.5, 0.26)`
* Initial direction: to the right (`angle = 0`)
* Distance to cover: `20`
