Bonus video: how I made the scrolling numberline (Patreon)

Content

In case anyone was curious, I have made a bonus video about how I produced the scrolling numberline of prime gaps. Spoiler: it was all done in a spreadsheet!

This video also reveals some terrible python code I will not be releasing any other way!

But you can download the Excel file. I'm prepared to share that. https://www.dropbox.com/s/39795t4tfa54i6m/prime-number-line-LONG.xlsx?dl=0

Spreadsheets: is there anything they can't do??

“If it breaks at the end, I don’t care.” That made me laugh harder than it should have. Thank you.

I know! I'm waiting for the HD version of the video to finish processing before I publish it. But you can watch it now if you want! Link in the post.

Why not just hide/delete the top ~10 rows in your Excel sheet, then you can put your mouse in the right top quadrant and scroll right and up. As your data as at the top of the sheet, your mouse cannnot scroll up.

That would have been a great idea for Past Matt to have had had.

100% a compliment!

I’d have liked to see a poll of “Guess what software was used to create the scrolling number line?” How many guesses would have been for a spreadsheet? Very inventive! But thinking about it, after photos and fractals a number line in a spreadsheet shouldn’t be a surprise ... ;-)

Enjoying recursive behind-the-scenes video-video!

Thanks for sharing! League Gothic is the standard SUM typeface and I often forget that most people will not have it installed.

Dave Land

What's the name of the utility you used for the continuous scrolling, please?

Gregor Kladnik

Past me had no idea the bonus content you're giving out to patrons was this good!

super weird it looks like this paper breaks the link schema unlike the other one. The link that does work is this: https://arxiv.org/abs/1408.4505v2 the 2nd paper also has a v2 but for some reason you don't have to define v2
