Featured Challenge:
#159 — Simple Pendulum Simulation
Choo choo! In this challenge, I build on chapter 3 (Oscillating Motion) of the Nature of Code series and simulate a simple pendulum in p5.js via angular acceleration.

Pi day
Happy Pi Day! How many delicious digits of Pi can you catch from the sky? In JavaScript!
🥧 Happy Pi Day 2021! This year I estimate the digits of π with random numbers and the probability of two integers being co-prime.
🥧 Happy Pi Day 2020! In this challenge, I build a simple web application using p5.js and node.js to search in the first billion digits of Pi.
Let's celebrate PI Day by approximating the digits of Pi using a special location in the legendary Mandelbrot set fractal!
In this coding challenge, I use the Leibniz formula (aka infinite series) to approximate the digits of Pi and graph the convergence.
Happy Pi Day! To celebrate I attempt to compute the digits of Pi using the “collisions” method, thanks to 3Blue1Brown for the idea!
In yet another “Pi Day” coding challenge, I attempt to generate a pdf “Book of Pi” with the first 10 million digits of Pi mapped to color. Processing (Java) is used for this project.
In celebration of Pi Day, Let's attempt to “visualize” the first one million digits of Pi.
In this coding challenge, I use use a "monte carlo" method to approximate the value of Pi in Processing (Java).
