Nelson's Portfolio
Hi! My name is Jacob Nelson, and this is my GITA 3 portfolio. You'll find my school assigned projects here, as well as some smaller projects I made on my own time. All projects are made with p5.js.
PERSONAL
Angle + Dist Coordinates
Most of the time, positions are specified with (x, y). This project shows a method to specify them with some angle and distance instead.
Simple Harmonic Motion
Simple simulation of a spring undergoing simple harmonic motion. Use your mouse to get it started.
Slope Field Generator
Generates a slope field when a slope equation is specified. Some calculus required.
PI Estimate From Probability
The ratio between the number of dots that have landed in the circle and the number of dots that have landed in the square will approach PI.
Polygons with Infinite Sides
As n -> infinity, the ratio between the perimeter of the shape and an axis within the shape will approch PI.
Constellations
A bunch of dots are generated, then their distances are sorted by a homemade sorting algorithm, then the closest 3 are connected.
