transcendental analytic
I need a set of classes that can describe
1 a path as a
a) set of timestamps and acceleration vectors.
b) ellipse
c) set of waypoints
2 a waypoint as a
reference to a path and a specific time
The important thing i want to do is to cast a path as a c) to a a).
The reason i want to do this is to calculate the fastest path for a rocket which should be able to have waypoints as planets (b) and other rockets(a). The rockets themselves defy gravity and obey classical kinetics.
i know an analytical solution would be too complex so i can accept a reasonable approximation.
Anyone know where i can find something like this?

writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
writing haskell makes your life easier:
reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.
