  • Study Notes

    • A spinning ASCII donut is shown on the left and a donut-shaped C code on the right.
    • The C code generates the spinning donut using rotation matrices and projection onto a 2D screen.
    • The code also adds illumination by calculating surface normal and light source.
    • Different characters are used to represent different levels of luminance in the ASCII world.
    • The code can be compiled and run to generate the spinning donut animation.
    • The donut's parameters, such as field of view and distance from viewer, can be controlled.
    • The author spends an hour every day exploring different topics and finds beauty in them.
    • They plan to create more videos about topics in machine learning, math, computer science, psychology, biology, physics, history, and philosophy.
    • The author recommends checking out Andy Sloan's blog post on the math behind the spinning Taurus.
    • The link to the blog post is provided in the video's description.
