Comment on Polar Coordinates, Sine, Cosine… by JOHNNY inside®

Hi… let me see if I can find my jaw. I just lost it when I saw this example. I got hypnotized of looking at this Math figure. I spent long minutes analysing how it moves by just changing some X and Y values. Thanks God I didn’t read the code, else I would try to understand it generating serious injury to my 2-neurons brain.

I’m a (was in 2010) 34 years old Cuban who’s always dreaming beyond the impossible. He always found Math too abstract because every time I asked a teacher: How can I use that in a practical exercise in life? They never gave me a serious answer.

Now, I’m lost an falling in love with Math and trigonometry… but that’s almost impossible when you hardly remember the result of 7×9=?.

Anyhow, I’m always pushing myself to my limits and then I kick myself to move on… and I created a simple, lander type arcade game and I wish to thank you because without reading chapter 7 from the book “Learning Actionscript 3.0″… I’d never make it.

Thank you, and your co-writer for this book. I wish I could become your student someday (something I hardly think I could for all the distance in miles and knowledge). That’ll be a dream come true!

YOU ROCK!

That’s actually quite nice :-)

T’would look good for UI elements in an application.

Well, if you learn a little programming using something like processing (processing.org) you could then generate 3D models from sine and cosine based 3D forms. You could also consider generating sine and cosine based 2D seamless textures and using them as a displacement map in a 3D program on a simple form like a sphere.

Hi I’m an architecture student and I’m playing along with polar coordinates to generate forms aswell! it might be really handy to have more info on how to get random polar coordinates. I know nothing about programming but I think this kind of project is really similar to my needs. I will try to use some random image from your programming to define some chapes, but could I get further information regarding this? thanks

Can’t wait to test it! I really like projects like this one.
I still miss something like this to export as3 classes
