It is the locus of points corresponding to the locations over time of a point moving away from a fixed point with a constant speed along a line which rotates with constant angular velocity. Equivalently, in polar coordinates (r, ) it can be described by the equation , r=a+btheta with real numbers a and b. Changing the parameter a will turn the spiral, while b controls the distance between successive turnings.
