Generative Art
Like flipping a coin, or throwing a dice.
Randomization is the process of making something random. Randomization is not haphazard; instead, a random process is a sequence of random variables describing a process whose outcomes do not follow a deterministic pattern, but follow an evolution described by probability distributions.
Code
Flipping a coin
// flipping a coin (pick a color)
if (random(1, 10) > 5) {
fill('white');
} else {
fill('blue');
}
Throwing dice
// throwing dice (pick a shape)
const dice = int(floor(random(1, 7)));
switch (dice) {
case 1:
letterM(x, y);
break;
case 2:
letterO(x, y);
break;
case 3:
letterN(x, y);
break;
case 4:
letterOo(x, y);
break;
default:
// silence, silencio
