How to use:
- To generate an arrow animation
This will generate the arrow animation for the points fed to
python arrow_animation.pyFOUR.animate(points,...)method, check the examples in the script - To generate an arrow animation
This will generate evolution animation for the points fed to
evolution_demo.pyFOUR.evolve(points,...)method, check the examples in the script
