OVERVIEW:
This sketch creates a fire effect on a cylindrical LED display using Perlin noise.
Unlike a flat matrix, this cylinder connects the left and right edges (x=0 and x=width-1),
creating a seamless wrap-around effect. The fire appears to rise from the bottom,
with colors transitioning from black to red/yellow/white (or other palettes).

// Perlin noise fire procedure
// 16x16 rgb led cylinder demo
// Exactly the same as the FireMatrix example, but with a cylinder, meaning that the x=0
// and x = len-1 are connected.
// This also showcases the inoise16(x,y,z,t) function which handles 3D+time noise effects.
// Keep in mind that a cylinder is embedded in a 3D space with time being used to add
// additional noise to the effect.

// HOW THE CYLINDRICAL FIRE EFFECT WORKS:
// 1. We use sine and cosine to map the x-coordinate to a circle in 3D space
// 2. This creates a cylindrical mapping where the left and right edges connect seamlessly
// 3. We use 4D Perlin noise (x,y,z,t) to generate natural-looking fire patterns
// 4. The height coordinate controls color fade-out to create the rising fire effect
// 5. The time dimension adds continuous variation to make the fire look dynamic

// UI Controls for adjusting the fire effect:

UISlider speedY("SpeedY", 1.3, 1, 6, .1);             // Controls how fast the fire moves upward
UISlider scaleX("ScaleX", .3, 0.1, 3, .01);           // Controls the horizontal scale (affects the wrap-around)
UISlider invSpeedZ("Inverse SpeedZ", 20, 1, 100, 1);  // Controls how fast the fire pattern changes over time (higher = slower)
