as3 or p55

I have this attractor viewer written in Processing. I wanted to finish it up a bit: calculate Lyapunov exponent, save to movie, save online, etc. The problem is it’s written an older version of Processing. Then I thought: why not try as3 on for size. It’ll be faster for me to write since my Processing is getting a bit rusty. Well [I got halfway](javascript:Sjeiti.showCode('code/attractors.swf', 800,600, 'attractor viewer') "planet") and I’m going back to Processing for this. Just compare a million iterations in Processing to the same in as3. Processing kicks Flash’s ass! I just hope Processing has gotten a little better while I was away. I do hope I’ll be able to save movies.
