Week 2- 2R Robotic Arm Challenge
Animation Link on Youtube is as follows:https://youtu.be/8oERVR5BSHo
Errors generated while coding:
Error-1:
While plotting using line command i did not put comma in between the x-coordinate array and y-coordinate array, and this threw an error.
Image of the same is attached as follows:
Error-1 coding image & error-1 error image.
Error-2:
when defining THETA-2 in the second for loop, i had used i instead of j which resulted in second arm not moving.
Image and animation file of the same is attached as below:
