Happy New Year! Looking back at 2023, I did a lot of programming projects but didn't keep up with this blog as I hoped. I thought now would be a good time to do a post looking at some of my favorite projects I did in 2023 that I haven't posted about yet.

This weekend, I set out to make a little Personal Home Page, and what better way than to use old-school PHP, HTML, and CSS to make something gimmicky and fun.

The chaos game is a neat way of generating fractals with just a polygon and a point - and a smattering of random chance. To play the game, first you start with polygon and a random initial point somewhere inside of that polygon. Then:

1. Pick a random vertex on the polygon.
2. Draw a point that is some fraction of the way in between your random point and the vertex you picked.
