Most of this is very old stuff that I made back in secondary school and sixth form in my free time.

• Revision question sets
  • OCR AS Economics questions
  • OCR AS Physics material vocab questions

• ocreMutiny — a tiny 1K emulator for the OCR A2 Electronics assembly language

• Verlet integration experiments
  • Ribbon in low gravity
  • Triangles
  • Interactive ragdoll game
  • Interactive bridge simulation
• 3D experiments with 2D canvas
  • Morphing points
  • Rotating 3D cube
• Fractals and automata
  • Animated Julia set. Uses randomised backwards iteration
  • Tinkerbell map. Beautiful order from chaos.
  • Langton’s ant I used this to visualise a PE problem. There is a bug when the ant hits the edge of the simulation; the glider pattern is meant to continue forever.
  • Linear congruential generator (LCG) patterns. Swirls and shapes emerging out of randomness.

• Minesweeper

• Snake in 1K
