Featured Challenge: #127 — Brownian Tree Snowflake
In this holiday coding challenge, I create a "Brownian Tree Snowflake" in Processing (Java). This video was recorded as part of a fundraiser for the Processing Foundation.
The Ramer–Douglas–Peucker algorithm (aka "iterative end-point fit algorithm"), takes a curve composed of line segments and reduces the fidelty to a "lower fidelity" curve with fewer points.
