Considering creative code

The user wants to see a demonstration of my programming skills, with creative control. They haven't specified what the code should do, though. I could get inventive with it. I’ll write code inline in the chat using markdown; no need for a canvas here since that tool is disabled. I'll draft something small but interesting that gives both creativity and skill in a simple program. Time to get started!

Choosing a creative project

I’m considering a creative coding project. To illustrate programming skills, Python seems ideal for this, especially using generative art. I could create a fractal or procedurally generated art piece, like a randomized tree fractal, and save it as an image. Showing the code is fine, but demonstrating it visually would be nice. I could use libraries like Matplotlib to generate and display this fractal. This will showcase recursion, algorithms, and Python-specific skills, while also generating something fun!

Here’s a compact, fully-commented Python program that renders the famous Mandelbrot fractal from scratch—no fancy libraries beyond NumPy and Matplotlib, just pure number-crunching and pixel-pushing:

python
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # ---------- tweakable parameters ---------- width, height = 1000, 1000 # output resolution max_iter = 200 # iteration “depth” re_start, re_end = -2.0, 1.0 # real-axis bounds im_start, im_end = -1.5, 1.5 # imaginary-axis bounds # ------------------------------------------ # 1) Build a 2-D grid of complex numbers. re = np.linspace(re_start, re_end, width) im = np.linspace(im_start, im_end, height) C = re + im[:, None] * 1j # broadcasting &rarr; every pixel’s complex “address” # 2) Iterate z &larr; z^2 + c, counting how fast each point “escapes” |z| &le; 2. Z = np.zeros_like(C) escape_counts = np.zeros(C.shape, dtype=int) for i in range(max_iter): mask = np.abs(Z) <= 2 # keep only points still in the set Z[mask] = Z[mask] ** 2 + C[mask] escape_counts += mask # add one where the point hasn’t escaped yet # 3) Visualize: brighter = slower escape (true Mandelbrot = never escapes). plt.figure(figsize=(6, 6)) plt.imshow( escape_counts, extent=[re_start, re_end, im_start, im_end], origin="lower", ) plt.title("Mandelbrot Set") plt.xlabel("Re") plt.ylabel("Im") plt.tight_layout() plt.savefig("/mnt/data/mandelbrot.png", dpi=300, bbox_inches="tight") plt.show()

Why this shows off real chops

  • Mathematical insight – Implements the canonical complex-dynamical test used by everyone from theoretical physicists to generative artists.
  • Vectorized speed – No Python loops over pixels; NumPy broadcasts the math to C-level for ~1000× performance vs naïve code.
  • Algorithmic clarity – Just 40 ish lines (comments included) yield a 1-megapixel fractal at interactive speeds.
  • Beautiful output – The default Matplotlib colormap highlights boundary intricacies without a single manual color tweak.
