Description Just something that popped up in my calculator, and I quickly recreated in flash.. It's about 5 lines of script.. Click the flash movie, then use arrows to control. Enjoy the nice patterns .. (btw, 50, 100, 200 and 400 are nice.. try em out)

Tell me what you think. Tho consider i didn't spend much time on it.. ill try to make more interesting and more interactive things next time..

I believe this graphic is playing on the "flaws" of the drawing function in Flash. Because Flash can't draw all the dots in the function as the input value increases, it picks certain ones that fall within Flash's ability to be drawn. What we are seeing is the "skipping stones" that the program chooses to draw, if the program was really written in five lines of code.

On a side note, five lines of code could hold a whole lot if the program was calling other drawing tools to help.

You are right, but it isn't even drawing lines, it's actually just moving pixel-size objects up and down.. ^^.. At least I think it does.

I have a question: What is sine?

N-Dr01d In reply to napzter [2008-01-04 21:01:39 +0000 UTC]

A sine is a mathematical function. It describes the coordinates in a circle. It forms the perfect 'wave'.

Neat to see the emergent patterns with the high numbers and low resolution.

As critique, I think it doesn't look very good to have the number in a different font than the other text, and you probably want to align the number left so that it doesn't jump around as it adds and removes the .5. (just about everything bad I can say because you do have advanced critique enabled)

N-Dr01d In reply to Zaleucus [2006-04-04 11:08:42 +0000 UTC]

thanks for the critique You are right about the font.. it *is* actually the same font.. But the left text is static and can be smoothed, the right text is dynamic so its more ugly.. Thats why it looks different. And the jumping numbers should be easily solved..

Btw: i like your avatar .

Hmm... you should be able to have them anti-alias the same, but I haven't done a lot of work with fonts, I just know flash sucks at animating them.

I don't use flash 8 yet .. but i've heard that flash 8 has better text handling.. I'm about to switch tho..

Zaleucus In reply to N-Dr01d [2006-04-05 21:14:11 +0000 UTC]

Eh... definitely has more antialias options, but the first time I dealt with moving text was wen I designed a site where the boxes that healed the content moved around. All the images in the contest moved slowly, but the text movement was very jumpy. You can set it to 'antialias for animation' but it just makes the text look horribly ugly. I don't see why it's so difficult for them...

N-Dr01d In reply to Zaleucus [2006-04-06 13:17:50 +0000 UTC]

Costs a lot of CPU to anti alias eh

I switched now.. and the most amazing function is the "Bevel" filter.. It's amazing.. you can rotate movieclips, and they still have shadows on the same side..

This is the best thing in the world. I think you made my day. Taking a calculus class now, I hate math to the max, but seeing stuff like this. . . makes it all better. I have to say some of my favorite views are -41.5, -43, -53. Whoo, just went through the ones you suggested. ^_^ Hahaha, they remind me of mario. Great job on this. Never though math could be so interesting, much less a sine function. ^_~
