Subject

Pong, developped as an arcade game in 1972 by Ralph Baer (Atari), is the first ever successful video game. It was in- spired by the very first video game, Tennis for Two, developped in 1958 by William Higinbotham on an oscilloscope.

The goal of this project is to work on a 3d version of this game (or of the Brick Break game by the way...); only one bat will be considered, moving only in the 0-altitude plan (which happens to be (Oxy)).

💡 Bounces on the bat and ends of game will not be taken into account ; in other words, only the ball movement is considered, whatever the context.

Your program have then to print :

• the coordinates of the ball speed vector,
• the ones of the ball in a given amount of time,
• the angle at which the ball will hit the bat (if ever the ball will indeed hit the bat, at anytime from t=0).

Usage

~/B-MAT-100> ./101pong x0 y0 z0 x1 y1 z1 n

• x0: ball abscissa at time t - 1
• y0: ball ordinate at time t - 1
• z0: ball altitude at time t - 1
• x1: ball abscissa at time t
• y1: ball ordinate at time t
• z1: ball altitude at time t
• n: time shift (greater than or equal to zero, and only interger given)

Bonus

• ball acceleration management.
• a graphical interface.
• a full 2d Pong game.
• a full 2d Brick Breaker game.
• a full 3d Pong game.
• a full 3d Brick Breaker game.
• a spherical bat.

Examples

∼/B-MAT-100> ./101pong 1 3 5 7 9 -2 4
The speed vector coordinates are :
(6.00;6.00;-7.00)
At time t+4, ball coordinates will be :
(31.00;33.00;-30.00)
The ball won’t reach the bat.

∼/B-MAT-100> ./101pong 1.1 3 5 -7 9 2 4
The speed vector coordinates are :
(-8.10;6.00;-3.00)
At time t+4, ball coordinates will be :
(-39.40;33.00;-10.00)
The incidence angle is :
16.57 degrees

💡 The incidence angle should be contained between 0 and 90 degrees.

💡 Mind the float numbers precision!
