Project Euler

󰃭 2013-03-12

I started doing the Project Euler problems last weekend. So far managed to get to problem 10.

I have realized how much I suck at math, and now I want to learn more. I know people with knowledge in math will probably laugh at my solutions, I really feel like I half-assed most of them so far.

Those with knowledge in math will probably find the problems easier than those with knowledge only in programming… Being good at math makes you a better programmer.

Did I mention I’m trying to program the solution to each problem in a different programming language? Last one I used was pascal. Never had used it before. It’s a horrible language, I’m glad I don’t have to use it ever again for anything.

By the way, every time I solve a problem I will updated my github repo. Check it out here. Feel free to critique!

Starfield visualization in JavaScript

This is a simple, straightforward implementation of a visualization reminiscent of the classic Windows 95 starfield screensaver. It is also interactive: you can touch the screen or use the accelerometer to influence the direction of the movement. This is how it works: Create a bunch of particles (100), each in a random position. Every frame, move each particle further away from the center*. The further the particle is from the center, the more visible it will become.

This is part of a series! Please make sure you have read Part 1 first! IMPORTANT – you can try out the result of this tutorial by visiting this CodeSandbox. However, I encourage you to read the blog post and try to follow along to understand how and why it works. Last time we left off with a very nice starry sky, but it’s a bit dead. We need to add some animation to it!
