spirographs

Spirograph is a geometric drawing toy that produces mathematical curves of the variety technically known as hypotrochoids and epitrochoids. The term has also been used to describe a variety of software applications that display similar curves, and applied to the class of curves that can be produced with the drawing equipment (so in this sense it may be regarded as a synonym of hypotrochoid). The name is a registered trademark of Hasbro, Inc.

"CODING   " that was the topic of project 3.
today I start reading the outline of this projcet.

1: choose term
Those are programming terms that i have to choose one of them.
variable(s), function(s), loop(s), if/else, array(s).



"make sure that you completely understand the chosen term yourself by analysing various processing applications and modifying them and by comparing them to real life objects or processes."


I choose Loops to be my term.


Create metaphors:
"Metaphor is the concept of understanding one thing in terms of another. A metaphor is a figure of speech that constructs an analogy between two things or ideas, the analogy is conveyed by the use of a metaphorical word in place of some other word."----------wikipedia



2: research

the definition of Loop-------

• Control flow loop, a sequence of commands that is executed repeatedly
  • For loop, a programming language statement which allows code to be repeatedly executed
  • Event loop, a loop that listens to and dispatches events/messages
• Infinite loop, a sequence of instructions in a computer program which loops endlessly
• Loop device (Unix), a device node that allows a file to be mounted on a directory

There are some idea from youtube
