to stay inside the 200 characters limit people had to use shortcuts:)

just to name a few widely used:

- skipping the size() call and setting it while uploading the sketch;

- calling integer parameters directly with their value (ex: colorMode(1) vs colorMode(RGB));

- using compact sintax (ie: ternary operators);

- good old variable reuse.

If you see something particularly obscure feel free to ask:)

Some amazing sketches! I went through a bunch of the code examples and some of them use some syntax shortcuts I have never seen before (which make me unable to understand the code).
It would be very useful if there was a tutorial or reference page that gave examples and documented of some of these code shortcuts.
