Description

Today, I came accross this reddit post by /u/its-notmyrealname on /r/dataisbeautiful: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/kn02gv/oc_distribution_of_prime_numbers_on_a_polar/

He plotted all prime numbers till 200,000 on a polar coordinate system, by drawing a point at the angle `p` with a distance of `p` where p equals the prime number. I think the result looks really pleasing. Like a spiral galaxy, far far away... :)

What about creating the same polar coordinate system using p5, with animations added so we can see the being generated over time?
