Drawing a heart

[Unstavle]

Is it possible to draw a heart shape using the ellipse command and setting the diameter to a function of x?

coding train just did this. subscribe if you haven’t it’s great.

Shameless self-promotion: you can also draw a heart using the curveVertex() function:

Valentine's Day Heart

I am trying to draw this heart using the coding train video you suggested and substituting the formulas with the ones in the image, but it seems like the frequency of the corner/triangle thingies is too low…

and instead it looks like this
I’ve tried changing some coefficients in the formula and stuff but nothing seems to work, any ideas on how I could make it look like the original one?

I was just faced with the issue of drawing a heart, and while I realize that there are many solutions, here is mine:

void heart(float x, float y, float s) {
  pushMatrix();
  rotate(radians(45));
  rect(x, y, s, s);
  circle(x, y - s/2, s);
  circle(x - s/2, y, s);
  popMatrix();
}

The result:
