"Why Do Prime Numbers Make These Spirals?" -- does this affect the Universe?
Can math indeed become visual, as in “Why Do Prime Numbers
Make These Spirals?”
Here is a pretty math video from 3Blue1Brown, and merges
number theory (of primes) with complex variables.
The idea is that you plot the points with a length of a
prime number from the center, and a prime number of radians, and as you spread
out, you get some predictable groupings of spirals at intervals.
The video also hits on a simple thing we learn in long
division in grade school – remainders.
