Featured Challenge:
#C5 — Marching Squares
In this episode of Coding in the Cabana, Gloria Pickle and I investigate the Marching Squares algorithm and apply it to Open Simplex Noise in Processing.

Pi
Happy Pi Day! How many delicious digits of Pi can you catch from the sky? In JavaScript!
Let's celebrate PI Day by approximating the digits of Pi using a special location in the legendary Mandelbrot set fractal!
In this coding challenge, I use the Leibniz formula (aka infinite series) to approximate the digits of Pi and graph the convergence.
In yet another “Pi Day” coding challenge, I attempt to generate a pdf “Book of Pi” with the first 10 million digits of Pi mapped to color. Processing (Java) is used for this project.
In celebration of Pi Day, Let's attempt to “visualize” the first one million digits of Pi.
In this coding challenge, I use use a "monte carlo" method to approximate the value of Pi in Processing (Java).
