relationship between mass and radius

1

Noting that in my examples I just use a multiplier to tie radius to mass. ```javascript this.radius = mass * 8; ``` Another, perhaps more accurate, way to approach this...

See: https://github.com/nature-of-code/noc-book-2/pull/79#discussion_r309427933 * Note: we kept in some of those closing remarks in chapter 10, but wanted a reminder to move them to chapter 11 when the time is right.

additional context for history of Perlin noise

1

Add paragraph with additional info about Perlin noise (fractal vs. value vs. gradient vs. simplex), improved perlin noise, simplex noise, and OpenSimplexNoise. (explanation: https://youtu.be/Lv9gyZZJPE0)

Note to self to add additional example and explanation after I.5 with a "pool selection" algorithm (https://youtu.be/816ayuhDo0E). I will also swap in this algorithm in the Genetic Algorithm chapter 9...

This will certainly need to become multiple, smaller issues, but filing one now just to remember the following: * Follow WCAG guidelines for website (book and homepage/download PDF system). *...

Use let+const or just let?

The random walker example is biased towards the top left (or at least the original Processing example was.) This gets asked a lot so I should check the new p5...
