I set out to create a star polygon generator, which could create: a pentagram, a heptagram, a star of david, a star of lakshmi etc. If you want to see how it is supposed to work: http://public.beuth-hochschule.de/~meiko/applets/star1.html If you dont know what I'm talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_polygon, http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Polygram.html The image included shows what this code is supposed to do, although currently it can only create the first column of the table.
