* The snowflake() function below is the cool part of this hack.
|
|
* It draws a fractal, but includes only a single line-drawing command.
|
|
* A 4th order Koch snowflake consists of 768 connected line segments,
|
|
* and this function draws them all with c.lineTo(0,len). The secret
|
|
* is the way it manipulates the transformation matrix before drawing
|
|
* each line. Probably not the most efficient way to write the code
|
|
* but a fun exercise in <canvas> transformations.
|
|
*
|
|
* The code to make the snowflakes fall is pretty standard CSS animation.
|
|
* Not the cleanest code I've written, but I need to get back to finishing
|
|
* the 6th edition of JavaScript: The Definitive Guide.
|
|
*
|
|
* This ought to work in IE9 beta, since that browser supports <canvas>.
|
|
* But it doesn't seem to. I took the shortcut of using window.innerHeight
|
|
* and window.pageYOffset, and I'm guess that is what is breaking it.
