Sunflower Seeds

on 12 Oct 2022

% Sunflower Seeds:

% Use fibonacci sequence on a linear scale to make small seeds in the middle

% and bigger seeds on the edge.

n=1000;

o=1:n;

R=o.^2/n^2;

T=4/(1+sqrt(5))*pi*o;

% Create a triangulation in cartesian so we can compute a nice voronoi diagram.

[X,Y]=pol2cart(T,R);

DT=delaunayTriangulation([X;Y]');

[V,r]=voronoiDiagram(DT);

% This would be a good time to filter off the bad seeds that go off the edge

% but I don't have enough characters for that.

% Convert the vornoi faces into a patch face and colors

F=ones(n,7)*nan;

for q=1:n

F(q,1:numel(r{q}))=r{q};

end

% Draw

patch(FaceC='f',EdgeC='#070',Faces=F,Vertices=V,FaceVertexC=sqrt(1:n)');
