Create

Description

Creates a plot of a flow field using a color palette

Usage

create(
  xdim = 1920,
  ydim = 1080,
  palette = sky,
  maxLength = 100,
  iterations = 250,
  numPoints = 750,
  curliness = 6.28
)

Arguments

xdim	specifies the width of the image
ydim	specifies the height of the image
palette	a list of colors to choose from. built-in palettes include: sky, clouds, ground, neon, retro, glow, seafoam, and pixiedust
maxLength	the maximum possible length of an individual line segment. Shorter values will create shorter lines
iterations	how many times the function will run, increasing the length of each line
numPoints	how many lines will be created by the function. For a densely populated image, use large numbers i.e. > 1000. For a sparsely populated image, use small numbers
curliness	the multiplier for the sin and cos functions in each iteration; determines how wavy the resulting image will be

Value

A ggplot with the resulting generated image.

Examples

create(xdim = 1080, ydim = 1920, palette = ground, maxLength = 20, iterations = 100, numPoints = 1000, curliness = 6.28)
create(palette = neon, maxLength = 1, iterations = 200, numPoints = 500, curliness = 1)

After running this function, if you like what you see, I recommended using the ggsave() function to save the image.
For a non-pixelated image, it is best to take set width = (your xdim multiplied by 10), height = (your ydim multiplied by 10), dpi = 900, and units = "px"
