bookChallenge: Simulate a Train Journey

In this challenge, you will put your understanding of kinematics and motion to the test by simulating a train's journey between two stations. The train travels at a constant velocity between stations but also makes scheduled stops along the way. Your task is to create a Python function that models the train's position over time, accurately reflecting both the motion segments and the periods when the train is stopped. You will validate your model by checking the train's position at key time points during its journey.

Завдання

Swipe to start coding

Simulate a train's journey between two stations, including periods of constant velocity and scheduled stops. The function should determine the train's position at any given time, based on a sequence of motion and stop segments.

  • For each segment, update the position according to the segment's velocity and duration.
  • If the requested time is within a segment, calculate the position using only the portion of the segment that has elapsed.
  • If the requested time is after all segments, return the total position after the last segment.
  • The train's velocity is zero during stops.
