A [http://www.otherwise.com/Jurtle/screenshots_win/assets/DisplayWindow_Full.png Polyspiral] is a spiral made of multiple line segments, whereby each segment is larger (or smaller) than the previous one by a given amount. Each segment also changes direction at a given angle.
;Task
Animate a series of polyspirals, by drawing a complete spiral then incrementing the angle, and (after clearing the background) drawing the next, and so on. Every spiral will be a frame of the animation. The animation may stop as it goes full circle or continue indefinitely. The given input values may be varied.
If animation is not practical in your programming environment, you may show a single frame instead.
;Pseudo code
<pre>
set incr to 0.0
// animation loop
WHILE true
incr = (incr + 0.05) MOD 360
x = width / 2
y = height / 2
length = 5
angle = incr
// spiral loop
FOR 1 TO 150
drawline
change direction by angle
length = length + 3
angle = (angle + incr) MOD 360
ENDFOR
