Go Logo - Mitchell's Best Candidate Bounded
license: mit

Visualising the IFRC Go Logo using the Mitchell’s best-candidate algorithm to place the circles.

Forked from philipcdavis's block: Mitchell's Best Candidate Bounded, which in turn is based on Mike Bostock's example.

Mike Bostock's description: "Mitchell’s best-candidate algorithm generates a new random sample by creating k candidate samples and picking the best of k. Here the “best” sample is defined as the sample that is farthest away from previous samples. The algorithm approximates Poisson-disc sampling, producing a much more natural appearance (better blue noise spectral characteristics) than uniform random sampling."
