Would it be possible to annotate this in a similar fashion to the Pontryagin duality pictures of the p-adic numbers and their Prüfer groups?

The 2-adic integers, with selected corresponding characters on their Pontryagin dual group

When you hover over a 'petal' in the Prüfer groups, a tooltip will tell you what value that petal has.

Not sure if I can do this to a .png file. The code certainly knows what polynomial each point came from, but at the moment the picture is just a screenshot and I don't know much about .svg format. Stephen J. Brooks (talk) 14:30, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

How did you make this?

How did you make this visually stunning graph? Is there a special computer program for this? --XndrK (talk) 17:15, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Stephen J. Brooks has posted the source code he used

I'm taking the liberty of linking the C/OpenGL algebra graphics code that the uploader used to generate the image -- he made posted said link to another user on his talk page. SamuelRiv (talk) 22:21, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

The two #include directives

Does someone (Stephen J. Brooks?) have additional insight into the contents of the rnd/frnd.c and lset.c files? It would be great if this example were actually self-contained or linked to [[1]] of its dependencies, for dilettantes like me who would enjoy playing around with it. =) Kenahoo (talk) 04:20, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

frnd(x) gives a random floating point number on [0,x) and LSet is just a set container that you add things to (simplest thing in C++ is just to use the STL variable-length array template Vector<T> or whatever it is). I wasn't going to inflict my odd way of doing variable length arrays (my own C implementation) on everyone else. Stephen J. Brooks (talk) 05:37, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
