difference (yet!) between two half-circles and a sinewave.
I rather enjoy math and programming. That's why I read Csound opcodes
in source form.

I agree as well. Why should it have to be a sine wave? Hertz didn't invent the
sine wave! A square wave has 'frequency' just as much as a sine does, and
presumably 'frequency' was the point of the googledoodle. Put the odd harmonics
in and get a circular waveform, it's fine by me.

electromagnetism. After all, that's what he's actually known for!

They were celebrating Heinrich Hertz' 155th birthday.

I don't think Theo was referring to JSyn, but to the algorithm as the
synth engine that may not be the next big thing.

But it's Google!!! Surely they have the resources to generate a sinewave

Eh, I still say they weren't going for a sine wave at all. Look at their other
doodles. I'm sure that their designers would have felt that a sine wave would
have missed the point for them.

i was wondering if it was the same Hertz. i guess it is.
sometimes Google's authority is dubious.
Apparently, the wave is made from shapes that are roughly those of the
letters (and their colors) in the Google logo...annoying to us, but there is
some logic behind it...

No. JSyn works with just the standard JDK. There are no dependencies
except that JSyn uses JavaSound for audio output. JavaSound is available
on Windows, Mac and Linux but not on Android.
