What is this? In short: this is a visualisation of math fractions.
The number shown with all the digits is the fraction.

Examples: 1/2 or 1/10 etc. You can also write the fractions as: 0.5 or 0.1.
These are simple fractions.

This app shows fractions visually: in circles.
Fraction 1/2 is like a series of dots with half a circle in between them.

Magic happens when the fraction changes from simple or rational too irrational.
The most irrational fraction is when the repetition of dots shows no clear patterns any longer.
