The result- ; ing parent fractal resembles a Mandeloid with added attractions ; beyond East Valley. But unlike the Z+Z^3 Mandeloid, where the ; extra bay consists of one unbroken open area, the extra bay in ; today's parent fractal is divided into two lobes. Today's scene ; is located on the shoreline of the valley that separates the two ; lobes. ; ; I added interest to today's otherwise unimpressive image by ren- ; dering it with the outside set to 'tdis' and the inside set to ; 'bof61'. The inside fill was necessary, since so much of the ; image consists of flat 'inside' areas. This inside fill creates ; the radiating wedges. After pondering the final result for a ; few minutes, I decided that the image deserves neither name nor ; rating. ; ; The render time of 9 minutes is a bit on the slow side, but ; impatience may be avoided by downloading the pre-rendered GIF ; image from the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Heavy clouds moved in Friday morning here at Good Old Fractal ; Central, along with much cooler temperatures. By mid-afternoon ; light rain set in. The fractal cats thoroughly disagreed with ; these conditions and let their displeasure be known by demanding ; extra tuna with their evening meal. ; ; For me the day was busy, but the work was finished in time for ; today's quasi-glorious fractal to be found. The next fractal ; will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if you had ; but one question to ask God, what would it be? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= FOTD_for_22-04-06 { ; time=0:09:11.95--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=ident center-mag=-0.01162948028339227/+0.018394765108803\ 46/3.118116e+009/1/-25/5.195524495418824e-007 params=1/1/1/4/0/0 float=y maxiter=2100 inside=bof61 outside=tdis periodicity=10 colors=000aW6UUMNSaGRpGUnGXmGZkGajGdhGfgGieGkdKGSG\ ENCCI8AD4881637E2DM2JU1Oa1RbITcYVdmQaiL_eGYaBWY7UV\ FJaM8hTFaZMWdSQjZKpeEvk8udHtZQsSZrMgrGohQk_ZgRgcWj\ __lWdnShpPmsLquHvwDzyA4FJuWSrhPptMqgGrVBsI5t601JH2\ KM3KR4LW5L`6Me6Mi8LdAL`CKWEKSIIPLHNOGLRFJVEGYDE`CC\ cBAQsieQnUOcIMU6KKJZLWlLhzLgsPglTgeXgZ`gSd`W`VZXPb\ TIePCiL6lH0oEUWLwDRkEP_ENOFLCFJ1FICUTMhcWvmRmhNddI\ X_EOW9FR57NeEa_IYVLVPOSKROEUL9XI7YW5Yh4YuFRrPKoZDl\ h6jj9fkBcmD`nGYpIVqKSpHUoFTnCTmAUl7Ul5UfJQaWMXhIRi\ KMjMHjNCkP7lR2lS6bW9UZCLaFCdI3gDKY8_O4oE6pL8pRAqXC\ qbErhGrnIstKszPkuUdpYXkbQffIakBXo4TeCWXJYNQ`EXbCS`\ AO_8JZ7FY5AX36W22V97SFBQLFORKMXOKbSIfYGibElgColArq\ 8uhcslArbDpTGoJJn9MpFKrLItQHqSFoUDlWBjYAg_8ea6cb5a\ f8`jB_nDZrGYvJXyLWvLVsLUpLTmLSjLRgLQdLPaLTpsEZX0IA\ 6LBCNBIQBOSBUVB_XBdZBSbLFeV2hc6daAa_EYYIVWMRUQOSUK\ QYHPDrgGnaIkXHTdHTeOUUVVI } 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========================================= ; ;
