Anton’s Corner

Anton Antonov has provided us with two more lovely posts this week. As ever his visuals and movies are a stunning insight into our world made with Raku. The snappily named Turtle graphics angular path using the prime counting function, π(x), over the first 100_000 (positive) integers and Graph neat examples in Raku (Set 4) are worth a look (also on YouTube). Please leave your thoughts and appreciations in the comments.
