FS letters

programming, Pygame, Python, #color, #different colors, #every file, #fade, #fading, #file, #files, #filesystem, #fs, #letters, #Macintosh, #random, #red, #red letters, #user

This program goes through all the filenames from every user (it is made for Macintosh), checks the filename and counts the individual letters. Those letters are then displayed on the screen, the most common ones big and bright and the least common ones dark and small. The letters will appear in a random order.

Rand pix

This program generates a snake of pixels which is randomly moving across the screen. If it leaves the screen, it (as in snakes) gets out the other side. It is also restricted to a length of 𝟣𝟢𝟢𝟢 pixels. As in ‘Colors V’ there are other ways the snake can look, based on the code used (I may post another color variant in the future).

Hangman

On a recent train ride I made a little Python program to play Hangman.
My version has 7 stages (you could implement more by changing the STAGES variable) and is at best playable if you have someone else who gives you a word (you can also type ‘r’ for a random word, but the list of random words is not very long).

𝜑 generator

mathematics, programming, Python, #Fibonacci, #generates, #generator, #golden ratio, #𝜑, #phi, #ratio, #simulation, #terminal, #the golden ratio

This program generates 𝜑, also called the golden ratio. It creates the fibonacci sequence and divides the newly generated number by the last one. In theory this program would generate exactly^[1] 𝜑.

In this program you can spawn in circular entities. Their color is defined by their position and they will move randomly across the screen. You can also toggle if their spawn time (in ticks) is shown or not and if the screen gets refilled.

Colors V — reupload

I have regenerated the previous ‘Colors V’ images. Using the screenshot feature, the images are exactly 𝟣𝟢𝟪𝟢 ⨉ 𝟩𝟤𝟢 pixels big and are pure (no bar up top). Going forward I will post pictures of programs which are used to create images and have a screenshot feature in the pure form as I did here.

To see the code, please visit ‘Colors V — other results II’, ‘Colors V — other results’ and ‘Colors V’.

This one here is more of a noisy result. See ‘Colors V’ for more information.
