I agree that it does not feel as much like a tutorial as the [[Wave Surfing Tutorial]], where you actually build a whole bot as part of the tutorial. Maybe this should be [[Introduction to Dynamic Clustering]] (still in "Tutorials" category)? Would a hands-on tutorial that builds a DC gun and/or movement, with full source code, also be useful? Still curious for more feedback on this article... --[[User:Voidious|Voidious]] 18:10, 17 August 2009 (UTC) | I agree that it does not feel as much like a tutorial as the [[Wave Surfing Tutorial]], where you actually build a whole bot as part of the tutorial.

Alright, I've written this up over the past couple days after some discussion at Category talk:Tutorials. I tried to write it with just pseudocode and a greater focus on explaining the ideas behind everything. So there are a lot of words and not much code. =) I'm still not sure if it feels enough like a "tutorial". I'd love some feedback on what's good, what's bad, what should be added / removed, or anything else... --Voidious 22:52, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
It looks like more "newbie friendly" Dynamic Clustering page, yet I like it. The only part I think is too much is the Gaussian (Kernel Density part) » Nat | Talk » 02:12, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
