programming beginner
TL;DR
Fitting Meta's logo with Besace curves is easier than you think – just two parameters!
Meta's iconic logo has sparked a mathematical mystery. Developers, rejoice! A clever post revealed the logo's shape is actually a Besace curve, and we're breaking down how to fit it with just two parameters (a and b). No math phobia required.
Key Takeaways
- •Fitting a Besace curve takes only 5 minutes
- •Start by rewriting the parametric form: t ranges over [0, 2π]
- •Plug in the logo's coordinates to find a and b
