Expression to make objects to move out at random from source object in center of screen
Looking to create an expression that would make a circles go out in different directions from a circle in the middle of the screen. I saw a video on something similar to this one time but can not remember the expression that was used. I do remember, however, that a wiggle expression was involved.
Also, what books are recommended for learning expressions? Some stuff I understand other stuff keeps slamming me into a brick wall.

try this:
target = thisComp.layer('center layer'); // your center circle layer
area = [800,800]; // value in pixels
dur = 3; // value in secondsseedRandom(index,true);
p1 = target.position;
p2 = random(p1-area,p1+area)
linear(time-inPoint, 0, dur, p1, p2)Kevin Camp

If your circle is a shape layer, you could just use wiggle transform. All you would need to do is duplicate it a bunch of times and add the wiggle transformer to the bottom of all the shapes. Take wiggles per second to 0 and then keyframe the position under it’s transform from 0,0 to 3049,4256 … or whatever last value works in getting them all off screen.
