+\subsection{exec.py}
+
+The exec.py file is used to execute the galaxytools defined in galaxytools.py.
+
+\subsubsection{Importing the galaxytools}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  import galaxytools as galaxytools
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The complete prgramm is compressed into one object. This Object has to be
+imported in order to be used.
+
+\subsubsection{Generate a new galaxy}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy = galaxytools.new_galaxy(100)
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+Using the previously imported library, one can start building a galaxy by
+calling the function new\_galaxy(...). The parameter inside the braces defines
+the size of the galaxy.
+
+\subsubsection{Generate new stars in the galaxy}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy.gen_new_stars(100)
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The function new\_stars(...) is used to generate in given amount of new stars.
+
+\subsubsection{Print the coordinates of every star in the galaxy relative to
+the origin}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy.print_stars()
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+Printing the coordinates of every star in the galaxy is useful for debugging:
+It is clearly visible if something is going wrong on the first look. The
+range of the galaxy might be wrong or the whole galaxy might be completely
+wrong scaled.
+
+\subsubsection{Calculate the forces acting inbetween all the stars in the
+galaxy}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy.calc_all_forces()
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+the function calc\_all\_forces() if used to calculate all the forces acting
+in the selected galaxy. The O notation for this can be calculated using the
+following equation: \( O(n) = n^2 \).
+
+\subsubsection{Print the individual forces acting on the stars}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy.print_individual_forces()
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The individual forces (x, y, z) acting on the star can be printed out too!
+Just use the function print\_individual\_forces() and you will recieve the
+individual forces nicley formatted.
+
+\subsubsection{Generate the coordinates of the positions for the spheres}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy.gen_sphere_positions(2)
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+To generate the sphere positions subdividing the galaxy, the
+gen\_sphere\_positions(...) function is utilized. The Parameter defines how
+many spheres are generated on one axis of the galaxy, so a higher value equals
+more spheres and so a longer time to compute. An infinite high value can be used
+if the value between each star should be calculated (use at own risk!).
+
+\subsubsection{Calculate the forces after 1 time step}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  galaxy.gen_forces_after_t(1)
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+Calculating the new position after one timestep makes it possible to animate
+the galaxy and so visualizing it in an exciting way making people think you've
+done something awesome! This can be acchieved by using the
+gen\_forces\_after\_t(...) function. It uses a timestep as an argument and
+uses it to calculate the new coordinates of the star.
+
+\subsection{galaxytools.py}
+
+Inside this file, pretty much everything for building a galaxy is defined.
+
+\subsubsection{Importing important libraries}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+# Import libraries
+import math as math  # general math
+import numpy as np  # advanced math
+# import matplotlib.pyplot as plt  # plotting things
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+This part of the code is used to import libraries which are then used to do
+e.g. advanced math.
+
+\subsubsection{Generating the new\_galaxy class}
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+# class used to create galaxies
+class new_galaxy(object):
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The class definition defines the galaxytools classname as new\_galaxy
