Alphabet Array Golfed

  1. l=[]
  2. for(i=26;i--;)l[i]=(10+i).toString(36)
  3. console.log(l)

A nasty golfed way to fill an array with letters a-z.

I usually do (as seen in another post):

  1. let letters = 'abcdefghijklmopqrstuvwxyz'.split``

Fake RNG

  1. let anchors
  2. let idx
  3. let leng = 10

  7.

  9.   idx = 0
  10.   anchors = (Date.now() + '').split``
  11.     .reverse()
  12.     .map(v => parseFloat(v) / 10)
  13.     .splice(0, leng)
  14. }
  15.  
  16. let last = 0
  17. let zoom = 1
  18. function rand() {
  19.   if (idx > size * size) seed()
  20.  
  21.   px += zoom
  22.   py += ~~(px / size)
  23.  
  24.   if (px >= size) px = 0
  25.   if (py >= size) py = 0
  26.  
  27.   const point = {
  28.     x: anchors[idx % leng],
  29.     y: anchors[(idx + 1) % leng]
  30.   }
  31.   idx++
  32.  
  33.   let dists = []
  34.   for (let i = 0; i < anchors.length; i += 2) {

  39.   dists.sort()
  40.   last += (dists[0] / size - last) / 4
  41.   return last
  42. }
  43.  
  44. seed()
  45.  
  46. let d = document
  47. let b = d.body
  48. with (b.appendChild(
  49.   Object.assign(d.createElement`canvas`, { width: 400, height: 400 })

  55.     for (let j = 0; j < 200; j++) {
  56.       const c = rand() * 255
  57.       fillStyle = `rgb(${c}, ${c}, ${c})`
  58.       fillRect(j * 2, i * 2, 1, 2)
  59.     }
