XCKD web comic influence has now
crossed over to Python programming code. |
Say "XKCD-style" and a great number of people will know exactly what you mean. For everyone else
XKCD is a web-based comic that has steadily gained rep among geeks, especially coders and math nerds. The visual style is decidedly sparse and obviously hand drawn -- the focus is on the ideas, not the artwork. In this sense XKCD is very similar to
mock-up tools that purposely generate "rough sketches" rather than polished facades.
In the past month a movement has popped up among coders to create "XKCD style" graphing routines. In just a matter of weeks several solutions have surfaced but the first I happened to run across was written in Python...
