Visualizing the Digits of 1/7, 2/7, 3,7, 4/7, 5/7, and 6/7

This short is a visual that shows edges in a circle connecting successive digits of the fascinating number 1/7. Interestingly enough, this is essentially the same picture for 2/7 through 6/7 as well. There are several different videos like this for Pi already on YouTube, and I recently showed a similar variant for e. Here we compare those with a rational expansion.

$Hilbert Curve from an L System In this video, we describe two how to draw a plane filling curve called the Hilbert curve using an L-system. While the substitution strings are a bit complicated, the rules for this system are easy to implement and use to draw a level 8 Hilbert curve (to dramatic music).

$Summing Powers of 1/6 via a Square Dissection This is a short, animated visual proof demonstrating the infinite sum of the powers of 1/6 using a square. The result is somewhat surprising given that it doesnt seem obvious how to decompose a square into powers of 1/6 and how the resulting area could easily be seen as 1/5 of a square.
