- | In the [[formalisms:lagrangian_formalism|Lagrangian formalism]], we describe what happens in [[theories:newtonian_mechanics|classical mechanics]] by referring to points in the configuration space. In this sense, the configuration space is for the Lagrangian formalism, what the phase space is for the [[formalisms:hamiltonian_formalism|Hamiltonian formalism]]. | + | In the [[formalisms:lagrangian_formalism|Lagrangian formalism]], we describe what happens in [[theories:classical_mechanics:newtonian_mechanics|classical mechanics]] by referring to points in the configuration space.

Configuration spaces are also the central objects in robotics, as the set of reachable positions by a robot. | Configuration spaces are also the central objects in robotics, as the set of reachable positions by a robot. |
