Description

So I was playing around with angles and eventually found out this interesting pattern that is formed when you turn an angle that is equal to to previous angle + another number. that is basically what this project is. MonkeyBean2 commented that it looks like an Euler's Spiral. I originally did not know what that was and so I did some research and found that he was right it did look look like an Euler's spiral, but from what I can tell Euler's spirals are generated differently than the way I used, so I did more research and eventually found this video. scratch.mit.edu/discuss/youtube/bKt6LZw1CtYA which is a video where a 7th grader found out the same code out and goes in depth into the math of this spiral. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Numberphile also has a great video about these spirals: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/youtube/kMBj2fp52tA/ I love Numberphile, and was shocked when they posted this video only a few months after I found this out, but it is not really surprising when multiple people have found this same thing out.
