Featured Challenge: #51 — A* Pathfinding Algorithm
In this multi-part coding challenge, I attempt an implementation of the A* Pathfinding Algorithm to find the optimal path between two points in a 2D grid.
All aboard as I attempt to simulate the artistic process of paper marbling. The algorithm is based on the paper 'Mathematical Marbling' by S. Lu, A. Jaffer, X. Jin, H. Zhao, and X. Mao. The code is written in JavaScript using the p5.js library.
In this video, I follow Mike Ash’s guide to Fluid Simulation and port Jos Stam’s "Real-Time Fluid Dynamics for Games" algorithm and code in Processing (Java).
