Cayley graph 3D

Cayley graph 3D

I was in the keynote session of AAMT conference. In the keynote, the mathematician Hanna Neumann was mentioned. I immediately googled and started reading about her on Wikipedia.

While reading, my thoughts are like the hyperlinks that go everywhere, then suddenly I saw and clicked into the Group theory, where I found the Cayley graph that caught my attention.

It is easily recognisable that this cayley graph is a fractal image, which can be produced with a simple recursive procedure in VRMath2's LOGO language.

So, at first glance, this seemed like it would be quite difficult....

turns out, it only took 10 minutes, very simple to construct, only angles involved are 45 degrees (would likely be more difficult if trying to show the faces, rather than just the edges.

My first Icosahedron

Icosahedron

Icosahedron is the last of the five Platonic solids. It consists of 20 regular triangular faces.

I am sure that there is a more efficient way to do this...

12 tables

In this blog, I am trying to use an existing LOGO program in VRMath2 called table.logo, then see if I can create a couple of tables using repeat command.

Recursive 2D fern leaf procedure

In my previous blog, I explained about a recursive tree procedure. Here is another one borrowed from Joshua's Logo Interpreter example: fern leaf procedure. This fern leaf procedure creates a 2D fern leaf in VRMath2's 3D space. You can examine it below in the 3D space with the LOGO program.
