Calculating Moment Of Intertia

Postby lesPaul456 » Thu Jan 07, 2010 3:15 pm

Is there an easy way for me to calculate the moment of inertia through code? Right now I have no idea of how I should be doing this.

Thanks!

Didn't know that, thx.

Anyway i forgot to say you have to multiply result returned by this function by its mass...
