Cool! Is your fiddle just the code? It’s not showing anything running for some reason…

Hmm, that’s unfortunate. It shows up fine on my end. I hardly ever use js fiddle, so I’m not sure what the problem could be.

Yeah, I think there was a time when JSFiddle didn’t work for me on Chrome, and I never looked into it. Probably not an issue on our end, lol.

It’s working in Firefox but not in Chrome. I suspect one of my extensions is causing the issue, since they introduced that Manifest V3, things have been breaking.

Still, pretty cool math tricks :smiley:
