movsph(r,A,B,V,op1) creates a randomly coloured sphere with radius r and moves it from point A to point B with speed V.

This can be useful when designing graphical simulations of statistical equations or when you want to moves something around (easier than plotting a person and moving it). The code plots the ground and adjusts the axis too if it is to be used on its own.

Accompanying the main code is a simple interface that makes use of it.
