$The Chaos Game The Chaos Game is a simple algorithm that generates some very surprising fractal patterns from a sequence of random moves. This video shows a bare-bones implementation of The Chaos Game using JavaScript drawing to an HTML 5 Canvas; you can try it for yourself at http://www.oview.co.uk/the-chaos-game. Learn more about The Chaos Game and all the variations that are possible by reading the Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_game The code for the web page is available on GitHub here: https://github.com/ChrisBLong/TheChaosGame You can grab the code from GitHub or just save it from your browser. If youre interested in coding, try editing the code to change how it works and see what other patterns you can make - there are some ideas on the Wiki page, or just experiment and see what happens. For example, the point doesnt have to move half-way to the chosen vertex each time - what happens if you move one-third of the way, or two-thirds? Can you find an interesting way to colour-code each point?$
