Coding Train Live 71: Coding Challenges: Circle Packing and White House Data Visualization
In this first Live Stream of 2017, I look at a simple algorithm for "Circle Packing" and animate the process of filling a 2D space with non-overlapping circles of various sizes, colors and positions.
I also discuss the newly released social media data from the Obama Administration and make a couple simple data visualization examples.
