Creating 10K of something is easy with #py5's vectorized methods:

size(999,999,P2D)
color_mode(CMAP,"hot")
stroke_weight(32)
s=create_shape()
with s.begin_shape(POINTS):
s.vertices(999*np.random.rand(N:=10000,2))
s.set_strokes(color(x/N,64)for x in range(N))
shape(s)
#genuary16

Many thanks for Nick McIntyre (github.com/nickmcintyre), an artist, writer, & teacher, for becoming py5coding's first GitHub sponsor! Very appreciative of Nick's support for future #py5 development.
