Dictyota

Dictyota is a genus of seaweed in the Dictyotaceae family. Species are predominantly found in tropical and sub-tropical seas, and are known to contain numerous chemicals (diterpenes) which have potential medicinal value. As at the end of 2017, some 237 different diterpenes had been identified from across the genus.[2]

gollark: That does seem... relevant, but also complex to implement and probably overkill for just detecting line vs parabola.
gollark: You can *approximate* just checking if it's going in a straight line...
gollark: Actually, if you want to detect just whether it's going straight up or down as opposed to other directions that's easier.
gollark: So what you want is to figure out if three points are (roughly) on a line?
gollark: What do you mean "type of parabola"? <@318817623590830080>
