Here's a "from-the-archives" post
I've been recently having more and more conversations – some privately and some publicly – on using the `turtle` module for more than just drawing circles and patterns!
Some of you may know this is one of my favourite topics – in this example, we're using it to visualise how sines and cosines are linked to the motion in a circle
How many children (and adults) learn about sines and cosines but don't know what they _really_ are?

@s_gruppetta what is insane to me, before I started college and really had to learn these relations, I had absolutely no idea what was actually going on. I fall over myself trying to shed light on this for other people now!
@s_gruppetta If you’re interested, I use the graphic a lot when I tutor calc 1 students to illustrate the difference quotient turning into the derivative https://www.desmos.com/calculator/swsskwwgo9
