N-body-Sim

Elementary n-body simulation accounting only for baryonic matter and ignoring particles g forces on each other

How to run

SFML is required to run this program

• MacOS

  brew install sfml

• Linux

  sudo apt update
  sudo apt install libsfml-dev

Compilation

g++  main.cpp -I<path_to_SFML> -L<path_to_SFML> -lsfml-graphics -lsfml-window -lsfml-system

Execution

./a.out <number of particles> <time value scalar>

• number of particles: depends on computational power of computer, recommend starting at 5000
• time value scalar: scalar to speed/slow simulation
  • default: 1
  • suggested max: 5
  • (NOTE: increasing excessively will result in inaccuracies)
