[Keith Vetter] 2015-12-01 -- http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Penrose_tiling%|%Penrose Tiling%|% is a non-periodic tiling generated by an aperiodic set of prototiles. Penrose tilings are named after mathematician and physicist Roger Penrose, who investigated these sets in the 1970s. Shown here is a Penrose tiling of type P3 constructed using deflation. The P3 uses a pair of rhombuses with equal sides but different angles plus a set of rules of how they may be assembled. Deflation is a construction technique where existing rhombuses are divided into two or three smaller rhombuses. In this instance we start with a circle divided into 10 half-rhombus triangles. The next generation divides each triangle into smaller triangles. By careful orientation and drawing the border of only two sides of each triangle we construct a Penrose tiling. ---- [Penrose Tiling screenshot] ---- ====== ##+########################################################################## # # Penrose.tcl -- Draws a Penrose P3 tiling using deflation of the Robinson triangles # by Keith Vetter 2015-11-25 # Based on http://preshing.com/20110831/penrose-tiling-explained/ package require Tk package require img::window package require tooltip # Try loading trampoline for pdf output lappend auto_path ~/misc/tcl_packages catch {package require trampoline} set S(sz) 700 set S(generation) [expr {2 + int(rand() * 4)}] set S(max,generation) 10 set S(save,file) penrose.svg set S(colors,0) #2212FF set S(colors,1) #7575FF array set CLR { steps 100 delay 20 big,delay 2500 go 0 } ##+########################################################################## # # Generation0 -- produce the initial Penrose tiling # proc Generation0 {} { global S TRI set pi [expr {acos(-1)}] set TRI(0) {} set type "0" set A {0 0} set radius [expr {$S(sz) / 2}] for {set i 0} {$i < 10} {incr i} { set theta [expr {$i * 2 * $pi / 10}] set B [list [expr {$radius * cos($theta)}] [expr {$radius * sin($theta)}]] set theta [expr {($i + 1) * 2 * $pi / 10}] set C [list [expr {$radius * cos($theta)}] [expr {$radius * sin($theta)}]] set D [VAdd $B $C] if {$i & 1} { lappend TRI(0) [list $type $A $B $C] } else { lappend TRI(0) [list $type $A $C $B] } } } ##+########################################################################## # # SubDivideThisGeneration -- creates the next generation of Penrose tiling # proc SubDivideThisGeneration {current_generation} { global TRI set next_generation [expr {$current_generation + 1}] if {[info exists TRI($next_generation)]} return set phi [expr { 1 / ((1 + sqrt(5)) / 2)}] set new_triangles {} foreach triangle $TRI($current_generation) { lassign $triangle type A B C if {$type == 0} { set P [VAdd $A [VAdd $B $A -1] $phi] lappend new_triangles [list 1 $P $C $A] [list 0 $C $P $B] } else { set Q [VAdd $B [VAdd $A $B -1] $phi] set R [VAdd $B [VAdd $C $B -1] $phi] lappend new_triangles [list 1 $R $C $A] [list 1 $Q $R $B] [list 0 $R $Q $A] } } set TRI($next_generation) $new_triangles return } ##+########################################################################## # # DrawThisGeneration -- draws all the Robinson triangles for this generation # proc DrawThisGeneration {generation} { set ::S(generation) $generation .generations config -text "Generation $generation" .c delete all set width 5 if {$generation > 3} {set width 3} if {$generation > 5} {set width 2} if {$generation > 7} {set width 1} foreach triangle $::TRI($generation) { lassign $triangle type A B C .c create polygon {*}$B {*}$A {*}$C -fill $::S(colors,$type) \ -tag [list poly "poly_$type"] -width 1 -outline $::S(colors,$type) .c create line {*}$B {*}$A {*}$C -fill black -width $width -tag border } SizeToWindow } ##+########################################################################## # # NewGeneration -- changes to a new generation of the tiling. # proc NewGeneration {generation} { global TRI if {$generation eq "+"} { set generation [expr {$::S(generation) + 1}] } elseif {$generation eq "-"} { set generation [expr {$::S(generation) - 1}] } set generation [expr {max(0, min($generation, $::S(max,generation)))}] if {!
