🧪 Double Pendulum (Chaos)

This simulation allows you to explore the mesmerizing and seemingly random movement of a double pendulum – two pendulms connected by a string. Observe how small changes in initial conditions lead to drastically different trajectories, illustrating the principles of chaos theory. Added a mass slider for the second bob, wired directly into the Lagrangian equations of motion.
