The repository contains example solutions for the Exercises presented in Code as Creative Medium, pp.150-183, by Golan Levin and Tega Brain, MIT Press, 2021.
These solutions were developed and/or ported by Golan Levin and Tega Brain with the assistance of Lingdong Huang, Tatyana Mustakos, Cassie Scheirer, and Xinyi (Joyce) Wang. In some cases and where indicated, solutions have been adapted from code by Dan Shiffman and others.
Wherever possible, we have attempted to provide solutions in all of the following computer programming languages and toolkits. We welcome contributions, additional implementations, and ports to other languages and toolkits.
- Java (Processing)
- Python (Processing.py)
- JavaScript (p5.js)
