/**
* @brief Wave generation function for wrapping a circle.
* @param t An angle of the circle. Between 0 and 360 degrees.
* @param count The number of **full** waves in a 360 degree circle.
* @param range **Half** the difference between minimum and maximum values.
* @param vertical_offset A simple offset.
* @details
* If plotted on an x/y graph this produces a standard sin wave.
* Range only seems weird because it describes half a wave.
* Mapped by doing [sin(t), cost(t)] * wave_function(...).
* When wrapping a circle:
* Final Outer radius is (wave_vertical_offset + wave_range).
* Final Inner radius is (wave_vertical_offset - wave_range).

* Idea based on Slant3D's video at 5:20 https://youtu.be/Bd7Yyn61XWQ?t=320
* Implementaiton is completely different.
* Important: Lower ribs numbers just result in a deformed circle.
