Hello, there! I have finally finished the project!!

Hello, there! This time I had spent quite some time on the drawing function problem, and as it turns out that my threading approach wasn't the problem, but instead the code for drawing was. At first, I had written the code so that it checks the user inputs on the GUI after drawing all of the data out, which I noticed after a little while and fixed it. But, that came with another problem of only drawing a single line and erasing the rest. So, I was stuck in this loop between debugging and finding errors for quite some time and then decided to draw a portion of the data, which in my opinion looked better and didn't come with any issues, unlike the previous solutions. Also, I have now completed it, and started working on packing up the entire thing. I also do plan on checking it before I build everything into a Python package and upload it to Github.

Hi, there! So far, I have started working on adding visualization for continuous data. But again, ran into a problem, that my threading approach has started to hit a dead end. Since drawing on the screen is blocking the entire thing and it too is a thread, so nothing can be done about that. So, I am thinking about switching to multiprocessing in python. Other than that, I have added support for semi and full circle radar data visualization.

Hi, there! This time, I planned on getting mechanics done for drawning the lines on the screen. But, things didn't go as I planned it would. I faced the main issue of my lines not being drawn with the correct size, angle or both. After a while of trying to fix it, I decided to take a break and come back later. Since that always works for me to find errors that I wouldn't normally have noticed in a single coding session. Then it finally worked! The issue was that the coordinate calculation for the y-axis was completely different from the x-axis. Anyways, everything from here on out should be smooth sailing.
