hm centroid... sounds painful
very nice stuff here, now not only do I never have to use mental math, I never even have to fiddle with calculators, my life is getting easier all the time.

This is some code I whipped up a while ago for a math class, so I could check my work easily. Currently, it can do the following with a triangle: Find the slopes of all three sides Find the lengths of all three sides Find the midpoints of all three sides Calculate the equations of the medians, perpendicular bisectors, and altitudes Calculate the centroid, circumcentre, and orthocentre This code is really simple, and was written quickly at night, so some of it may be poorly executed. However, it is very thoroughly documented, and you might learn some stuff about C++ by taking a look at it. <a href="http://www.mironv.com/stuff/articles/TriangleSolver1.0SourceCod.shtml">Enjoy</a>! |

hmm.. i dunno if you used this but you can get the coordinates of the centroid by averaging the coordinates of the vertices.. |

I know, I forget what way I did it in the program though. I was just going by the textbook when I wrote it, I think. |

thats why programming is soo useful 8) I used to write programs on my TI-83+ and all homework was done in minutes  My teacher didnt like it though. Somethinig about homework being work that we had to do not just come up with the right answer...
Oh well. |

lol, getting the right answer and understanding it counts...its just that the calculator does both |

hm homework? blah you don't need to do homework... not unless of course your teacher is an idiot and actually checks /me shudders just like do the assignments and stuff you actually have to hand in and count and you're fine  |

I usualy avg the vertices even though my teacher dosn't like it. and i don't think i've ever had a math teacher who checked my homework |

Oh well. hmmm...we have those calcs at my school, what langauge is used to write programs? |

well... it has it's own version of BASIC as far as I know... I used to write code right on the calculator, although there're other variant compilers where you download the file player and files (thats how most of games are made). |

Most of the games actually are written in Z80 assembly. That's why they're so bloody fast. |
