(sec-module-utilities)= # Module: utilities The big import of Exudyn's Python utilities: 'from exudyn.utilities import *' makes the utility modules available at once. It defines no functions of its own; they are in basicUtilities, advancedUtilities, rigidBodyUtilities and itemInterface. The beam generators are imported from exudyn.beams, graphics and colors from exudyn.graphics, the mesh functions from exudyn.graphicsDataUtilities; the MainSystem extensions are functions of mbs (#2756). - **Author**: Johannes Gerstmayr - **Date**: 2019-07-26 (created)
