+// I wrote the pendulum simulator to learn V, I think it could be a
+// good addition to the examples directory.
+// Essentially, the pendulum sim runs a simulation of a pendulum with
+// a metallic tip swinging over three magnets.
+// I run this simulation with the initial position at each pixel in an
+// image and color the pixel according to the magnet over which it
+// finally rests.
+// I used some fun features in V like coroutines, channels,
+// struct embedding, mutability, methods, and the like.
