This whole week I've been doing a lot of maths studying. Things like parametric curves, LaGrange theorems and funky functional sequences.
Naturally I've developed a bit of a love for pretty mathematical objects, so I wanted to share some with you.
- Our first contestant is the cardioid. She's a bit chubby on the sides but has a heart of gold.
- The second contestant is an implicit heart and was contributed by a bloke on Facebook whom I believe has had this saved somewhere because it would be just mindblowing if he even know it from heart, let alone could create it.
- This little nugget followed from my experimentation with parameters of a curve I don't know the name of ... it's a flower if you haven't noticed.
- The Butterfly Curve is well known in some circles, but I found it by stumbling around wikipedia like a drunken madman
- There are likely to be other contestants I have yet to discover.
So, which curve do you think is the most beautifulest mathematical construct?
