[Challenge] Sandpile Fractals on p5.js #295

Open harsh2204 opened 7 years ago

harsh2204 commented 7 years ago

Also known as Abelian sandpile models, these fractals are really cool looking and have a fairly simple computation algorithm. Here's a link to the Wikipedia page. Here's a video by numberphile explaining this concept.

I was just about to comment this! did you watch the Numberphile video?

harsh2204 commented 7 years ago

@Woeshbot Yup. Sharing the beauty of mathematics to the coding world. ;)

So I actually made this, took some time but got it working. Needs optimizing, though. ( http://orangalo.ga/ASM/index.html )
