went a searching, and came across "4 bar linkage" as a search term to bring back wanted results for a equation and gave useful extra links to deal with linkages. along with needed term "vectors" for programming.
i came across Wolfram Research: Mathematica, Technical and Scientific Software and downloaded and installed the free player. to run through some of the demo's pretty cool. ran through there website for there main software package at $5,000 bucks... no way to pay for that. and does not look like it covers what short term goals i am wanting, let alone long term goals looks like programming would still be needed.
been trying out some different IDE / compilers software to deal with C/C++ programming language. and hope, i still remember the basics of the language. way to many years since last used... but so far just been fighting the most basic controls / code and libraries, for data-basing, and getting the software packages just barely working without throwing errors with "hello world!" examples. i would have hope it would have been much simpler... it been one of them days were "drag and drop" has came close to dragging computer into the trash can.
of course then i saw Artisan AutoCAD Inventor Professional Software for FREE? thread at the end of the day...
at this time not sure what tomorrow will bring, i may drop right into C++ programming if all goes well. if not i may look at a couple videos for autodesk. and make some calls between autodesk and wolfram to make a decision.
though i maybe at or near my max download limit for internet package i have. will find out tomorrow. and that may put a big hurt, or downloading any trails or free doings.
