The code looks like it has a ways to go, but it’s progressing. One thing you
should change is to separate the input reading from the calculation. During
the hit() callback is where you’re currently querying input from the user —
this should happen in main() or at least somewhere before the rt_shootray()
call. That way, you will have sorted out the same mechanism you’d have to use
in rtweight et al.

Intentions in your code will always be easier for you to see than anyone else…
:) That said, the hit() function does look pretty straightforward. Aside from
the hard-coded “4”, it looks adequate for all the cases we’ll likely care about
and maybe “done”. Obviously the important logic is happening in
segment_density() as that’s where it has to figure out the integral. Note that
it likely needs that ‘4’ which currently isn’t used by it. You should also be
passing in the user-read data and not utilizing globals (segment_sensity()
should take additional parameters as input).

Thanks for the reminder. Hopefully you don’t completely lose track of where
you left off… Is it possible to wrap things up into a more stable state before
then (or at least from the 28th to the 1st)? I would expect your time to be
quickly gone once you travel abroad.
Cheers!
