HP Prime/TI 84 Plus Color Silver Edition: Dynamic Programming: Orbit on a elliptic path.

This program orbits a θ character on a elliptical path. Use the arrow keys to change the size and the elliptical path. The program executes until ENTER is pressed.

Controls:
Left: Decrease of horizontal semi-axis
Right: Increase of horizontal semi-axis
Up: Increase of vertical semi-axis
Down: Decrease of vertical semi-axis
ENTER: Exits the program
