// Notes:
// This demonstration shows one way of implementing
// a fast collision detection routine using spatial hasing.
// Note that this trades memory for processing speed.
// The basic idea is to avoid comparing every node with
// every OTHER node, just their neighbors on a grid.
// This avoids the n^2 calculation time needed when comparing
// every node to every other node and speeds things up happily.

// Red lines represent current distances being calculated.
// Green lines represent a collision.

// Special thanks to Josh Nimoy.
