Kaprekar Routine

Created by Christopher Manning

Summary

Kaprekar's constant is 6174. The Kaprekar Routine arranges four digits (zeros are appended to the number if it's less than 4 digits) in descending and ascending order, subtracts those two numbers, and repeats the process until the difference is 0 (degenrate case) or 6174 (Kaprekar's constant). The color is HSL with a scale of 0 to 300 in the

Animated Civis Analytics Logo

Created by Christopher Manning

Summary

I created this to experiment with SVG rotate, chained transitions, and arc generated paths. I picked my company's logo since it has an interesting design and I had an idea of animating it.

My first attempt had me just using the d3.svg.arc() startAngle and endAngle to create the arcs, but that left the arcs with angled edges when they were rotated to line up. Instead, the arcs are full circles and white rectangles rotate around each arc to give the illusion

d3.js polybrush.js

Forked from: https://gist.github.com/gtb104/3667340

Here's a d3 plugin that allows you to create a polygon selection. You instantiate it just like d3.svg.brush.

var brush = d3.svg.polybrush();

It has an extra public method that 'brush' does not, and that's 'isWithinExtent(x, y)'. You can use this method to test if a given point falls within the drawn extent.

if (brush.isWithinExtent(x, y)) {
 console.log("I'm inside!");
