@quarks_n_snarks: Always been really into evolution simulators. This is a (very basic!) attempt. It uses L-systems which make great fractal pattern. I then evoke the population of these 'plants' and the ones with the highest fitness get to stay and mutate. The fitness is based on absorbing 'sunlight' from above (so avoids too much overlapping which blocks it), absorbing 'air' which discourages overcrowding and more surface area. and there is a penalty for being asymmetrical as well. The results look vaguely plant-like, and have interesting leaf structures. Was a fun little coding project ☺️🌳🌲#code #evolution #science #fractal #learn
