An interesting way to visualize the distances between a set of points and the rest of the points in the plane.

As I played with this project and was fascinated by the patterns I wanted to be able to compare patterns so I copied the playfield and ran with multiple "r" values at the same time, which was nice.

I then made a book with multiple playfields per page to compare more results.

I also learned a new scripting technique: how to change colors by adding to hue value in color.

Minor point on a great project, Book2 which shows the "instructions" needs some formating on page 3 the word asnwer was slightly clipped on my screen.
