So today's discus- ; sion will be another terse one. ; ; The parent fractal was created by combining negative portions of ; Z^(0.996) and Z^(-1.004), then adding (1/C). The scene is ; located near the point where a filament extending from a bud ; vanishes behind a foreground disk. ; ; I rendered the image with the outside set to 'summ', which I ; believe refers to the sum of the 'real' and 'imag' components. ; I named it "Summation" because the 'summ' option was used. ; ; When studying the image, I decided that it was at least slightly ; above average, and gave it a rating of a 6. The render time of ; 7 minutes results in an overall value of 85. The overall value ; becomes meaningless when the completed GIF image is downloaded ; from the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Except for a brief thunder-shower Wednesday evening, things were ; pretty good here at Fractal Central both Wednesday and Thursday. ; The cat duo agreed, and enjoyed two pleasant afternoons in the ; holly thicket. I also enjoyed the two days, mostly because the ; work went well. ; ; Today is starting sunny and hot. I will be indoors most of the ; day, but how will the cats cope with the heat? Only time will ; tell. If all goes well, I will return in 2 days with the next ; FOEFD. Until then, take care, but don't be too careful. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE================================ Summation { ; time=0:07:02.76--SF5 on a P200 reset=2003 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+0.23153186563478310/+0.167478758327911\ 30/5430495/1/80/-1.48974043941846324e-006 params=-1/0.996/-1/-1.004/0/0 float=y maxiter=1200 inside=0 outside=summ periodicity=10 colors=000yd9yd6wcAvbDubHtaKraOq`Rp`Vo_Ym_alZdkZhj\ YkjZriYpiYnhXmhXkhXjgWhgWgfWefVcfVbeV`eU_dUYdUXdTV\ cTTcTSbSQbSPbSNaRMaRKaRJ_QLZQMYPNXPOWOQVORUNSTNTSM\ VRMWQLXPLY6IoNL_OLZPLYQLYQLXRLXSLWTLWTLVULVVLUSITU\ KUVLUWMUXNVYOVZPV`RWaSWbTWcUXdVXeWXeYVfXXfWZgV`gVb\ hUdhTfhThiSjiRljQnjQpkPrkOtlLykNwkOukPtjQrjSqjToiU\ miVliXjiYihZgh_fhadgbbgcagd_gfZfgXfhVfiUekSelRemPf\ rLepNenOdmQdkRcjTchUbgWbeXacYab_````_b_Yc_XeZVfZUh\ YSiYQjXPlXNmWMoWKpVJrVHsWFvVGtUGsTGrTGqSGpRGoQGnQH\ lPHkOHjOHiNHhMHgLHfLIdKIcJIbIIaII`HI_GIZGIYHHWHHVH\ HTHHSHHRHHPHHOIGNIGLIGKIGJIGHIGGGFGIGFJGFKGFLGFNHF\ OHFPHFQHFSHFTIFUIFVIFXIFYJFZJF_JFaJEbJEcKEdKEfKEgK\ EhLEiLEkLElLEmLEnMEpMEqMErMEr8AsFCsMEsTGs_IsfKsmMs\ tOszQryRqxSpwSovTnuUmtUmsVlrWkqWjpXioXhnYhmZglZfk_\ ej`di`chaclbcjachacgaceacdacbac`ac_`cY`cX`cV`cT`cS\ `cQ`cP_cN_xeOxeLydIydFydC } frm:MandelbrotMix4 {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(-a*b*g*h)^j, k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE================================== ; ;
