Exploring the Secrets of Times Tables and the Mandelbrot Set

The video tutorial explores the concept of times table circles, where points on a circle are connected based on multiplication tables. It introduces the cardioid and nephroid shapes, explaining their mathematical significance and occurrences in various contexts, such as rolling curves and the Mandelbrot set. The tutorial also discusses continuous transitions in times tables, modular arithmetic, and the reflection of light rays in circles, highlighting the emergence of complex patterns.

What is the initial step to create the times table visualizations?
