The Dragon Curve fractal is created by repeatedly folding a strip of paper in half, then unfolding it to form a curve. In this challenge, I attempt to code an animation of the Dragon Curve forming with p5.js in JavaScript.
This multi-part coding challenge is part of the first week of my course: "Intelligence and Learning." Here I attempt to implement a classic data structure: The Binary Search Tree.
In this third installment of my series on algorithmic botany, I discuss L-systems and how they can be used to generate trees and other fractal patterns in p5.js.
More algorithmic botany! Another way to generate a fractal tree is to consider every part of the tree an object, so that we can apply forces and attributes to all the branches and leaves and more!
