It’s finally time to dive into the trigonometric functions—sine, cosine, tangent—and take a close look at thinking in polar coordinates with p5.js! Code: thecodingtrain.com/tracks/the-nature-of-code-2/noc/3-angles/4-polar-coordinates
p5.js Web Editor Sketches:
🕹️ Basic Polar Coordinates: editor.p5js.org/codingtrain/sketches/DHetsOfgz
🕹️ Spiral: editor.p5js.org/codingtrain/sketches/BnJ_4U4cr
🕹️ Random Trail: editor.p5js.org/codingtrain/sketches/WqK-qD1vU
🕹️ Circular Shape: editor.p5js.org/codingtrain/sketches/s10TQXDZv

Timestamps:
0:00 I'm so excited!
0:11 Sine, cosine, and tangent
2:24 Sin, cos, and tan again differently
5:49 Polar coordinates
9:03 Demonstrate polar coordinates
11:26 Spiral and Randomness
12:17 Draw your own circular shape
15:19 What kinds of shapes can you make?
16:02 See you in the next video!
