Algorithmic kolams/rangoli #775

Hey, can you fathom how to create something like this https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2184753/can-these-kolams-rangoli-be-drawn-mathematically-in-any-programming-language

This suggestion does not have an algorithm to draw these curves, so I would assume they were manually and not programmatically drawn. As you can see in the comments, the closest thing someone could find that actually had an algorithm assigned to it was the Hilbert Curve. I would suggest closing this issue and creating a new one about the Hilbert Curve if you want to see The Coding Train complete this.

I adjusted the title to reflect the idea. An image would also be helpful, I'll add one here!

I found this nice little guide with steps on how to create a kolam. Seems a bit simpler now to create them programmatically!
