[Archimedean spiral](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedean_spiral) is the base of [Spiral moving fish](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1763139).
The equation of Archimedean spiral is `r = a + b * theta`. If you just increase theta with the same amount, the distance between each segment of the moving fish would also be increased.
In order to equally spaced each segment, I need to find out all angles between each segment. That's what the `find_parent_angles` module does in the .scad
