ulam_spiral, a Python code which displays the integers as a spiral of grid cells, with the primes highlighted, so show that they tend to fall along diagonals, as discovered by Stanislaw Ulam.

ulam_spiral is available in a MATLAB version and an Octave version and a Python version.
caustic, a Python code which generates an image of a caustic, by drawing n equally spaced points in a circle, and then connecting specific pairs of points using a spacing parameter m.
chladni_figures, a Python code which creates Chladni figures of the eigenmodes of a thin vibrating plate, by Martin Gander and Felix Kwok.
epicycloid, a Python code which plots an epicycloid curve.
fern, a Python code which displays the Barnsley fractal fern.
fibonacci_spiral, a Python code which displays points on a Fibonacci spiral, suggesting the arrangement of seeds in a sunflower, for instance.
gaussian_prime_spiral, a Python code which computes a twisting spiral path along the Gaussian primes, and displays a plot of the total trajectory.
hilbert_curve, a Python code which computes the sequence of discrete Hilbert curves whose limit is a space-filling curve.
julia_set, a Python code which computes and plots a Julia set, the set of points in the complex plane that remain bounded under a mapping of the form f(z) = z^2+c.
lissajous, a Python code which plots a Lissajous figure.
mandelbrot, a Python code which generates an ASCII PPM image of the Mandelbrot set;
mandelbrot_orbit, a Python code which generates the sequence of Mandelbrot iterates arising from a single starting point.
