This is a qualitative demonstration of the chaotic behavior of a double pendulum. The user will be able to set the initial parameters(position, weight, angular momenta), and determine if he/she wants to run a single pendulum, a single pendulum whose path is traced, or two double pendulums with a slight parameter change. Once activated the pendulums will demonstrate nonlinear dynamic mathematical behavior.
