Manipulating Points
- Click to add a point.
- Drag a point to move it.
- Double-click to delete a point.
- Shift-click to increase weight at a point.
- ALT-click to decrease weight at a point.
▽
Controlling the Simulation
- Click the red point to start the simulation.
- ALT-click the background to stop the simulation.
- Drag the red point to start the simulation at a different location.
- Shift-drag the red point to move it without restarting the simulation.
- Use the control panel to change the weight and friction values.

The Control Panel
- Click the bar below the simulation to open or close the control panel.
- Start, Step, and Stop control the simulation.
- Clear resets the configuration to its initial configuration.
- You can see and edit the Points in the configuration.
- Use Set to change the points, Rescale to fit to the window.
- The Position and Velocity of the red point are shown.
- You can edit them (press return to make the change).
- The Weight is for the red point relative to the blue ones.
- The Friction tells how slippery the surface is (between 0 and 1).
- The Model tells wether the red point finds the mean or the median.
- Auto-Start starts the simulation whenever the red point is moved.
- Auto-Restart restarts the simulation when the configuration changes.
