I found another way to communicate stuff with drawings.

Here is a neat drawing pad to share online ideas.
We could probably make use of this to demonstrate
mathematical ideas!!
Here is just a silly example...

Re: I found another way to communicate stuff with drawings.

I've seen that before. I like how it shows the creation of the drawing, rather than just showing us the drawing. I think it's possible to draw stuff, then rub it out and draw more stuff, which couldn't be conveyed with just a picture.

I never thought of using it for mathematical contexts though, so nice idea.
Just one thing: π ≈ 3.142 shametongue


Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.

Now it is a piece of art.

You mean you added something? Because I can't see any changes.

Removed what? A post? Or something on that artpad website?

Re: I found another way to communicate stuff with drawings.

I think Zach 'added' to John's artpad thingy. And someone 'removed' it.

Zach, could you try and add it again?
