I have been playing with Hypotrochoids and Epitrochoids, and wanted to share the results with everyone. Hypocycloids are the curves traced by a single point on...

Chris, I think this is a bug, or at least complex number arithmetic round off error. Try Re(acos(Px/|P|)) and Re(asin(Px/|P|)) to get rid of the small...
