In other words, why not go all the way to infinite...?
Nice.. yes just like how the sine Gordon equation is the continuum of torsion coupled pendula

I realized that the website has a phase-space plot of pendulas that start with a small spread of initial conditions. After a bit of time,the plot becomes like this. I guess this implies that the ensemble of double pendulas have reached thermalization & ergodicity holds.Very cool.pic.twitter.com/nChO5C9ajH

I wonder what the temperature, entropy etc of the thermalized state is.
