How to Create a Pink Love Note of Spheres in Form of a Heart

Want to make art with your math?! Here is how to make the image below, which should speak for itself. This spreadsheet involves many new tricks, however, so you may want to learn it for that reason. You do not need to know exactly how...
Part 1 of 3:

The Tutorial

  1. How to Create a Pink Love Note of Spheres in Form of a Heart Picture 1How to Create a Pink Love Note of Spheres in Form of a Heart Picture 1
    Open a new Excel workbook and create 3 worksheets: Heart Data, Heart Chart (unless you use Chart Wizard) and Heart Saves. Save the workbook in a logical folder.
  2. Set Your Preferences: Open Preferences in the Excel menu and follow the directions below for each tab/icon.
    1. In General, set R1C1 to Off and select Show the 10 Most Recent Documents .
    2. In Edit, set all the first options to checked except Automatically Convert Date System . Set Display number of decimal places to blank(as integers are preferred). Preserve the display of dates and set 30 for 21st century cutoff.
    3. In View, click on show Formula Bar and Status Bar and hover for comments of all Objects . Check Show gridlines and set all boxes below that to auto or checked.
    4. In Chart, allow show chart names and set data markers on hover and leave the rest unchecked for now.
    5. In Calculation, Make sure Automatically and calculate before save is checked. Set max change to .000,000,000,000,01 without commas as goal-seeking is done a lot. Check save external link values and use 1904 system
    6. In Error checking, check all the options.
    7. In Save, select save preview picture with new files and Save Autorecover after 5 minutes
    8. In Ribbon, keep all of them checked except Hide group titles and Developer .
  3. Click between the 1 and the A in the far upper left corner to select the entire worksheet and set Format Cells Alignment Horizontal Centered and Font Size 9 or 10 or so and Number Number Decimal Places 4 (at least)(it often takes at least 6 or 8 to get really good rounding to the spheres via goal-seeking). Double- click on the right separator line of a column header to make that column automatically adjust for overflowing text.

    2. When that formula has been correctly entered and 1 is in On_0_Off_1 in cell A2, the spheres will be contiguous but when a 0 has been entered in On_0_Off_1 in cell A2, there will appear pairs of spheres, and there will be 1's in column A from A8:A47, then 0's from A48:A87, and so on, in sets which adjust for sphere count as I recall. Insert New Comment and copy cell A8's formula from the formula bar and edit in "Original formula (paste the entire formula)" and expand the comment cell frame to fit.
  20. Into B7, enter the formula w/o quotes and w/o spaces between the zeroes "=IF(EVEN(S_COUNT)=S_COUNT,ROUND((-t*PI())+(Adj),0),0.000 000 000 0001)"; Insert New comment and edit in "Original formula =IF(EVEN(S_COUNT)=S_COUNT,ROUND((-t*PI())+(Adj),0),0.0000000000001)" and Format Cells fill Lt. Purple color.
    1. Edit Go To cell range B8:B1447 and with B8 the active high-lighted cell enter the formula w/o quotes "=((B7+(-TOP*2)/(AdjRows)))*$B$1" and Edit Fill Down. Insert New Comment and edit in "Original formula =((B7+(-TOP*2)/(AdjRows)))*$B$1".
  21. Select cell C7 and input the formula w/o quotes "=ROUND(-EXP((PI()^2)+(C1458*-(db))),0)+C1457" and Insert new Comment and edit in "Original formula =ROUND(-EXP((PI()^2)+(C1458*-(db))),0)+C1457". Do Insert New Comment and edit in "Original formula "=ROUND(-EXP((PI()^2)+(C1458*-(db))),0)+C1457". The result in the cell should be -17185.
    1. Edit Go To cell range C8:C1447 and with C8 the active high-lighted cell enter the formula w/o quotes "=C7" and Edit Fill Down. Do Insert New Comment and edit in "Original Formula =C7 down to C1447."

The Cos formula evaluates to -.0070 in AF1447 where I'm now storing it, fairly harmlessly. If you guys want the rest of the worksheet, ask, and there'll be made a Part II wikiHOW, about writing out Candi Woz in spheroids via formulas.

Explanatory Charts, Diagrams, Photos

  1. Create the chart in the usual way (see Related wikiHows at bottom for previous articles).
  2. How to Create a Pink Love Note of Spheres in Form of a Heart Picture 4How to Create a Pink Love Note of Spheres in Form of a Heart Picture 4
    That's it! You did it!! If you have errors, see the Warnings section below please. There is not a single error on the sheet that is germane to the Heart Chart or the others to show you. The chart is proof in and of itself.
  3. That was a real labor of love. That one was pretty difficult, and there's a whole other third to it.
