1. (code) by progressively deleting all points except for the square's corners
2. (code) by approximating a circle with four Bezier cubic splines and modulating the spline control points
3. (code) by approximating a circle with four circular arcs whose radii lengthen to infinity
4. (code) by linearly interpolating points on the circle towards points on the square, along radii of the circle
5. (code) by progressively moving points evenly sampled along the circle, towards points on the square, resampled at equal intervals, by small random amounts
6. (code) by treating it as a rounded rect, whose (rounded) corners have a dynamic radius
7. (code) by treating it as a multisided polygon whose number of sides gradually decreases to four
8. (code) by gradually flattening the circle on four sides
9. (code) by gradually shrinking the circle's radius, revealing square corners within
10. (code) by treating points along the perimeter as a series of springy particles
11. (code) by considering it as a set of alternating straight lines and arcs in which the arcs shrink while the lines grow
12. (code) by using a 'superellipse' formula
13. (code) by progressively subdividing it into a 4-gon, 8-gon, 16-gon, 32-gon, etc., with smooth interpolations.
14. (code) by abruptly moving points evenly sampled along the circle, towards corresponding points on the square
