[PREVIEW] Recreational Maths in Python (Patreon)

These tutorials are for all the developers out there that are curious to explore and visualize the bizarre properties of numbers. If you’re up for such a challenge, they will teach you how to use Python to calculate some of the most famous numerical sequences.

Recreational Maths in Python (password: "maths")

This post shows how Python can be used to calculate numberical sequences of arbitrary length. It is used to generate the happification and the melancoil tree, which has been discussed in an episode of Numberphile.  You can find a high resolution version (2000x2000px, first 1000 numbers) here: PNG, SVG.

Interactive Graphs in the Browser (password: "graphs")

The second post shows how to animate a graph in the browser. It uses Python to generate the graph data, and then inputs it to D3, a JavaScript libraries to render SVG drawings. You can find an interactive version here: HTML.
