    • @5alpha23
      @5alpha23 Год назад +17

      @@ASaltyAcc that's really easy actually: each transformation is a matrix, multiple transformations is just a matrix multiplication. The desired shape (i.e. an equation with three variables) has a "solution matrix" attached and you compare the two (solution vs. user created). For the general shape you check if certain values are zero, positive or negative and then you just state an error for each of the fields that a user is allowed to be off. 🤷
      Rotating or moving the user shape changes the transformation matrix as well of course. I find it more fascinating that we're at a processing power that allows this to be calculated on the fly 😉

      @@Phriedah It shows some nice homeomorphisms and continuous transformations. I wouldn't say it really helps with learning topology beyond imparting the idea that you only care about shapes up to homeomorphism, i.e. if one shape can be continuously changed into the other and the other can be continuous changed back, then they are the same. When properly learning basic topology, it is a lot of manipulating sets and functions rather than looking at shapes. Understanding the shapes and spaces you are working with is important, as you are able to intuitively guess at the properties of those spaces without having to do actual computations, however if you want to prove things, you actually do have to do computations.

    "I wonder how the algorithm for close enough works?"
    I expect that it's using a parameter space where each coefficient is for x-stretch, y-stretch, amount of sine-wave, amount of curvature around a cylinder, etc. So we would get a list of numbers that describes exactly the transformations that the surface has undergone. We can define distance in this parameter space via the euclidean metric (sqrt(a^2 + b^2 + c^2 ...)). Then there's just a threshold *parameter* distance that counts as success.

    • @Khaim.m
      @Khaim.m Год назад +1

      I don't know if that would work for different solutions, and there definitely are multiple sets of transformations which produce the same result. Or maybe it would? I guess it's probably all matrices so on second thought yeah, it's probably a metric on the matrix representation.

    • @NStripleseven

    Like another guy said, this game has felt pretty easy to me so far, likely due to my use of 3D modeling software. The only parts that have been strange to me are the wavy line thing, as that is not generally a feature of 3D modeling programs. The stretched one is, well, stretching, and the circle one is the revolve tool. To me it was pretty intuitive in most of the ones using a circle what you needed to put in to get the object, same with turning it diagonally once you got the squiggly shape. The only parts that have been confusing me are the squiggles themself, very hard for me to visualize what it's going to look like.

    If I had to guess as to how the forgiveness factor worked, I'd wager that each available transform is just a matrix (linear algebra). Where you place the shape on these transforms adjusts the values used by the transform. Finally, it sees if each component of your matrix is close enough to the solution. Matrix transformations are dependent on the order you do them.

      Well if you shrink the hole in a torus enough it becomes a double covering of a sphere but not exactly a sphere itself

    8:01 could literally rotate and stretch
    btw with your explanation i finally understand what it does like- i thought it just teleported the exact column in the other column there but i guess it just rotates your shape around a center huh

    That moment when you make a circle more circular and reality fractures

    An alternate way to think about the circle transformation is that each horizontal row on the checkerboard becomes a ring on the circle board. This explains why horizontal objects get wrapped around to make a circular shape.

    This is really cool. I feel like the presentation could be improved and make it more like a game than a series of puzzles, but the base functionality of transforming everything in real time is crazy in itself.
