There’s an old myth that legendary artist Leonardo da Vinci could draw a perfect circle freehand. The bad news: it’s probably not true.
But it is fun to imagine that the feat is possible. Think you can do it? A new interactive tool lets you try to draw a circle with your mouse (or finger, if you’re on a phone or tablet).
Simply draw the circle, click analyze, and see how good (or bad) your circle is. Want to learn how to draw a better circle? Watch the video below:

I’ve literally seen perfect freehand circles drawn by three different individuals. Further; there are several instances available on YouTube of other individuals performing said same. Considering the many contemporaneous accounts of him doing so I find this opinion dubious, at best.
