The earliest memories I have of computers is a contraption my dad rigged up that would draw mandalas on a screen. Later in my life he wrote software that would plot large mandalas on his huge plotters.

In my last project, I learned about image generation using PHP and realized that it might be possible to use PHP functions to draw mandalas. After a couple hours of relearning trig, I was able to create a script that outputs a .png image of a mandala based on the size and number of points that you give it.

After my dad showed me an article in the Funny Times about the how the only letters that really matter when we read are the first and last, I thought it would be fun to write a little script to scramble the inner letters of words.
