Encountering TypeError: object of type <class 'float'> cannot be safely interpreted as an integer

[OrbitalMechanic]

I attempted to run the example on the GitHub page. See the attached file.

The results I get are

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Please advise.

In doing a dive into the file plotting.py found that on lines 107, 136, 222, 232, and 262 the number of points argument for linspace was of type float as opposed to int. Making the third argument of linspace of type int appears to have corrected the errors.

A text file containing the corrected lines has been attached to this note for review.

Hope this help.

I'm facing this same issue.

Here's the example I tried:

from numpy import radians from scipy.constants import kilo from orbital import earth, KeplerianElements, plot orbit1 = KeplerianElements.with_period(90 * 60, body=earth) plot(orbit1, title='Orbit 1')

Here's the error:

**Any guidance around how to resolve this would be great! **
