Is the set $({ncos(n)},{nsin(n)})$ dense in $[0,1]^2$
$begingroup$
Let ${cdot}$ be the fractional part. $Bbb N$ is the set of positive integers.
Is the set ${ ({n cos(n)}, {n sin(n)}): n in mathbb{N}}$ dense in $[0,1]^2$?
It is known that the set ${ {sin{n}} : n in mathbb{N}}$ is dense in $[0,1]$, and the same about $cos(n)$. In addition, according to this answer, ${n sin(n): n in mathbb{N}}$ is dense in $mathbb{R}$ under a
"reasonable" assumption.
I've also plotted the first 1,000,000 points to see if it "seems to be dense".
