#184 — Elastic Collisions

What happens when two circles collide in a p5.js canvas? In this video, I examine the math and implement idealized elastic collisions in a physics simulation. This video supplements the Nature of Code book series in Chapter 6 which uses 3rd party physics libraries to handle collisions rather than a direct implementation.

It's the Monty Hall Problem! In JavaScript! With p5.js! Yes, you really double your chances of winning by switching doors. I hope to convince you of this in this video!

The Monty Hall Problem

In this multi-part coding challenge, I visualize the "Chaos Game".

In this coding challenge, I simulate a "random walk" with vectors in p5.js, varying the distance of each step size. This is known as a "Lévy Flight" (named after french mathematician Paul Lévy.)
