Simon’s changes to Daniel Shiffman’s Spherical Geometry Coding Challenge

Simon talks about his changes to Daniel Shiffman’s Spherical Geometry Coding Challenge: He has rewritten the code in an object oriented manner. Later he also turned the sphere into an … Continue reading Simon’s changes to Daniel Shiffman’s Spherical Geometry Coding Challenge

More Vector Functions. The Damned Matrix Class.

Simon made another attempt to conquer vector functions, now in JavaScript (in Atom) and got stuck once he reached the Matrix Class, again. He had already tried this in Java, … Continue reading More Vector Functions. The Damned Matrix Class.

Back to Attractor with ToxicLibs

Simon returned to his old Attractor sketch in Processing once again, now adding some new functions: The code original came from Daniel Shiffman’s book The Nature of Code, Chapter 5 (Physics … Continue reading Back to Attractor with ToxicLibs

Simon’s Changes to the Lorenz Attractor Coding Challenge

Simon explains why he slightly changed Daniel Shiffman’s Lorenz Attractor Coding Challenge: Simon used four variables instead of 11. The Lorenz system is a system of ordinary differential equations, first … Continue reading Simon’s Changes to the Lorenz Attractor Coding Challenge

Back to Python (and C#)!

Simon was preoccupied with vector functions for most of the day on Saturday, compiling what, at first site, looked like a monstrously excessive code in Processing (he recycled some of … Continue reading Back to Python (and C#)!

Treading into Calculus

Simon seems to be setting first gentle steps in Calculus, once again thanks to Daniel Shiffman. In the videos below, Simon talks about minimizing and maximizing functions, the power rule, … Continue reading Treading into Calculus

Simon gets serious with Linear Regression (Machine Learning)

Simon has been working on a very complicated topic for the past couple of days: Linear Regression. In essence, it is the math behind machine learning. Simon was watching Daniel … Continue reading Simon gets serious with Linear Regression (Machine Learning)
