The Nature of Code

Daniel Shiffman

How can we capture the unpredictable evolutionary and emergent
properties of nature in software? How can understanding the
mathematical principles behind our physical world help us to create
digital worlds? This book focuses on the programming strategies and
techniques behind computer simulations of natural systems using
Processing.
