   Agreed! The numbers are the Alexander-Briggs identifiers for the prime knots: - The big number is the number of crossings. - The subscript is its officially designated index within the set of knots that have the same number of crossings. -

   Yes, it's sacrilege, but I omitted the trivial knot from the main table! You can get to it in a roundabout way, by clicking any other knot in the top row (e.g., the trefoil).

   Thanks! The fragment shader performs simple lighting with one stationary point light that has ambient, specular, and diffuse components. There are actually no true reflections, although that would be fun thing to work on.

   You're right, I sorta overdid it with the easing animation.

   I was inspired to make this after reading "The Knot Book" by Colin Adams. If you click "Rolfsen Table" at the bottom, you'll see the entire gallery.
