So I created this parabola class which can be instantiated with 3 parameters (a, b and c) or with 3 points belonging to the parabola. The punti()
function returns all the points belonging to the parabola in a range defined by n
and m
. Here's the code (Most of this is in Italian, sorry):
class Parabola:
def __init__(self, tipo=0, *params):
'''
Il tipo è 0 per costruire la parabola con a, b, c; 1 per costruire la parabola con
tre punti per la quale passa
'''
if tipo == 0:
self.__a = params[0]
self.__b = params[1]
self.__c = params[2]
self.__delta = self.__b ** 2 - (4 * self.__a * self.__c)
elif tipo == 1:
matrix_a = np.array([
[params[0][0]**2, params[0][0], 1],
[params[1][0]**2, params[1][0], 1],
[params[2][0]**2, params[2][0], 1]
])
matrix_b = np.array([params[0][1], params[1][1], params[2][1]])
matrix_c = np.linalg.solve(matrix_a, matrix_b)
self.__a = round(matrix_c[0], 2)
self.__b = round(matrix_c[1], 2)
self.__c = round(matrix_c[2], 2)
self.__delta = self.__b ** 2 - (4 * self.__a * self.__c)
def trovaY(self, x):
y = self.__a * x ** 2 + self.__b * x + self.__c
return y
def punti(self, n, m, step=1):
output = []
for x in range(int(min(n, m)), int(max(n, m)) + 1, step):
output.append((x, self.trovaY(x)))
return output
Now my little game is about shooting targets with a bow and i have to use the parabola for the trajectory and it passes by 3 points:
The trajectory is represented by a black line but it clearly doesn't work and I can't understand why. Here's the code of the game (Don't mind about the bow's rotation, I still have to make it function properly):

)

rotated_surface = pygame.transform.rotozoom(surface, angle, 1)
rotated_rect = rotated_surface.get_rect()
return rotated_surface, rotated_rect
# Function to map a range of values to another
def map_range(value, leftMin, leftMax, rightMin, rightMax):
# Figure out how 'wide' each range is
leftSpan = leftMax - leftMin
rightSpan = rightMax - rightMin
# Convert the left range into a 0-1 range (float)
valueScaled = float(value - leftMin) / float(leftSpan)
# Convert the 0-1 range into a value in the right range.
return rightMin + (valueScaled * rightSpan)
# Player class

You can run all of this and understand what's wrong with it, help?
You round the values of a, b and c to 2 decimal places. This is too inaccurate for this application:
self.__a = round(matrix_c[0], 2)
self.__b = round(matrix_c[1], 2)
self.__c = round(matrix_c[2], 2)
self.__a = matrix_c[0]
self.__b = matrix_c[1]
self.__c = matrix_c[2]
Minimal example:
import pygame
import numpy as np
class Parabola:
def __init__(self, parabloe_type, *params):
if parabloe_type == 0:
self.__a = params[0]
self.__b = params[1]
self.__c = params[2]
elif parabloe_type == 1:
matrix_a = np.array([
[params[0][0]**2, params[0][0], 1],
[params[1][0]**2, params[1][0], 1],
[params[2][0]**2, params[2][0], 1]
])
matrix_b = np.array([params[0][1], params[1][1], params[2][1]])
matrix_c = np.linalg.solve(matrix_a, matrix_b)
self.__a = matrix_c[0]
self.__b = matrix_c[1]
self.__c = matrix_c[2]
def claculateY(self, x):
return self.__a * x ** 2 + self.__b * x + self.__c
def pointsOnCurve(self, n, m, step=1):
return [(x, self.claculateY(x)) for x in range(int(min(n, m)), int(max(n, m)) + 1, step)]
