This project was inspired by a coding train video and implements the Time Tables Cardioid pattern (a mathematical problem) in C++/SFML.
The project has CMake completely setup, meaning you can easily run it by opening it in your preferred IDE and configuring the CMake project.
In the main.cpp file, you can find window_size and count, with which you can manipulate setting of the project.
window_size determines the width and height of the (square) window. By default, it's 1280, corresponding to 1280px.
count determines the amount of lines / divisions of the circle present in the project. This can be adjusted to fit
one's needs. It should be noted, however, that the time it takes to render a frame is linearly proportional to this
number, and too many lines can mean worse results (since the limited amount of pixels and anti-aliasing decrease the
quality of the image). Therefore, choosing this value is a balancing and there is no "correct" value (although even
numbers work significantly better).
