0 to 1.
I think we're talking a bit "langs elkaar heen".
My point with the anim was to illustrate that you can have non-unique x-
values because there are no sin / cos functions.

And I've solved mine :)

There's noting wrong. My main problem was the non constant distances and 
that's solved.

SinCos? I've seen it on your page, not tried it yet, but I will.

Thank you, and Peter, for your comments. It helped me solve my problem.
