Maybe I should do a small

Hello everyone! I'm Ron(i) and go by Roninkoi in most places. As a kid I started off making games for competitions such as , but these days I'm more into the technical side of things. Graphics programming and is my main interest, especially and . IRL I'm a computational grad student working as a part-time code monkey

My Emacs pinky is flaring up again, so trying to use the right Ctrl key more. Muscle memory is dang hard to overcome!

This comes from the matrix
$$L = \begin{pmatrix} V(1) & 1 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & V(2) & 1 & & & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & V(3) & 1 & & \vdots \\ \vdots & & & \ddots & & 0 \\ 0 & & & 1 & V(q-1) & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & \cdots & 0 & 1 & V(q) \end{pmatrix},$$
where $$V(k) = 2 \cos(2 \pi k p/q)$$ for integer p and q.

Hofstadter's butterfly is a fractal arising from non-interacting electrons in a magnetic field. We can draw it by computing the eigenvalues of the system's Hamiltonian and plotting values of the Lyapunov exponent. Here's a shader that does just that! shadertoy.com/view/7s2XRt
