Thanks for giving this out. I still don't understand the math behind making this though, haha.

Thank you so much for sharing your project. I don't have a use for it at the moment but just knowing that the solution is there when the problem arises is a comfort. I enjoyed watching you crack this one. Well done to you and all who helped.

The whole javascript element of the project is facinating to me too.

 

Really neat stuff going on there that I don't understand a thing about.

But I sure can appreciate it!

Julian,

 

Thanks for your effort on this... and now giving to the community...

 

I'm glad I don't have "brain worms*" like this to keep me up late at night working on extracurricular projects.

 

*brain worms are usually snippets of song that get stuck in your head... and you can't easily rid yourself of the "noise" the most common "cure" is to sing the verse you "hear" repeated... (there really have been studies on this)

 

In this case I attributed them to a programming problem that would keep niggling at you until solved... boy am I glad I don't have THAT!

 

Thanks again, Julian!

I'm glad people are still interested in this! Would this have something to do with the Mars image contest?
