Coding Challenge #1 - Code a Christmas Tree!

Dave

@LucasJG25 - Looks like you got in first! Congrats :) Awesome job.. That looks like a very clever way to do this indeed! I must study it :D Well done dude! Feel free to edit your post to add your explanation of how it works if you like!

@Richard - Absolutely AWESOME! Give Isaac a huge high-five for me! Love it, super creative. The tiny little "fuzes" at the top!

Here is mine! It is a fractal Christmas tree!

First I draw the initial image:

Then I copy the copy the current image, and scale and rotate it in order to draw the branches:

Then I just draw the result on the screen and repeat the previous step.

I went for something that I could build quickly:

loop
    clear()
    setView(0, -1, 4, 0)
    triangle({2,-1}, {1}, {3}, green, false)
    update()
repeat

Or to make it a Christmas tree:

loop
    clear()
    setView(0, 1, 4, 0) // inverted the y here, because why not...
    triangle({2, 1}, {1}, {3}, green, false)
    triangle({2, 1}, {1}, {3}, yellow, true) // added this line for decorations
    update()
repeat

edited: setView did not handle docking and undocking the way I expected, so I had to update my submission for that (now doing everything each loop).

It appears my project name is the same as JMM161437's project, it asks me if I want to overwrite mine when I enter his code. Should I rename mine and resubmit?

Shady little Christmas tree

but your values lay inside
may your future be so bright.

Update: found the interpretation bug in my rudimentary SVG slurper

Reading through the posts, I feel like my SVG approach is not fitting the core of this challenge. I will move it to a separate WIP thread. So, this submission fits better: download code NQ6HVMNDN8

The dark/light green structure in the tree, was a typo, but I decided that it looks nice 😄 so I left it.
