When ; I checked my e-mail, I found that I had won three lotteries that ; I did not buy tickets for, and I also needed to verify my identi- ; ty for three internet banking accounts that I do not have. One ; would doubt that anyone would actually fall for these scams, but ; from the way they keep proliferating, it is hard to believe that ; they totally fail to catch a few suckers. Maybe I should start ; selling certified authentic Mandelbrot sets. ; ; Today's striking image consists almost entirely of 'inside' ; stuff made visible by the 'bof61' fill. It is another variation ; of the strange rectangle in one of the Julia sets of the ; Z^(2.003)+C Mandeloid. The orientation is rotated only one ; degree toward the Elliptic plane, but the result is a very ; unusual variation. ; ; The rectangle is not really there. When the inside is set to ; the normal flat black, there is no sign of the rectangle. It ; has become a virtual rectangle. But the rectangle was virtual ; from the start, so now it has become virtually virtual, which is ; what I named it. ; ; The 'bof61' inside fill is not the only one that works with ; today's image. The 'fmod' fill also works quite well, and the ; 'zmag' fill works reasonably well also. The other inside fills ; simply color the inside areas a flat color. ; ; I did not rate the image, but if I had, it would probably have ; earned a rating of 8 or 9. The passes=b option not only works ; fastest with the image, it is by far the most interesting one to ; watch in action. The render time of 9-1/2 minutes will be irrel- ; evant if the image is viewed on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Partly cloudy skies and a brisk high temperature of 68F 20C made ; things reasonably pleasant for the fractal cats, who spent the ; day indoors, unconcerned with the outside conditions. The light ; work load made my day pleasant also. The next FOTD will appear ; in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if someone offends a ; fractal, expect no violent protest. Fractals are very peaceful. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Virtually_Virtual { ; time=0:09:24.40--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot4 passes=b center-mag=-0.00368788/0/42.12754 params=90/0/89/0\ /-1.7435/0/0.00019/0.07388/2.0031/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=bof61 periodicity=0 colors=000wwwzzzzzzzzzpvxfnsjdrP_kHTf8Lc1FZ09X08V4\ 7U88S00CE7PH5PL4OP4NV4N00Bf4Mk5Nf5Nc6N`6O60BU7NR7N\ M7MK7OJ9O3A`FBPDCPBBR7BR5CR1C`0CS0CS0BV0BX0BY0Ae0A\ b0Ac0Af09h09i08m09n18p18x17u28w26r37z38x27r27u27s1\ 7n27p28p18k17m18k17i17h18h07b07e08cM8b07`07`77R55S\ 74OU2V91GB0DD0AG08J05`0MP01R02M12S23U54g5GV85V95SA\ 5XC5YE5hM5ZH7`J7YK6bN7bO7hS8cS8eV9bW8fY9fZ9kXAhbAi\ cAidCkfCkgCmaDiiDikDimFinFipFpeFisHiuHhwIhxIizJvbH\ frKemLeiNdfNcbOicQcZRcXTcWUcWWbXYg__ZXYYYYYYYZYZ`_\ bkZc`_e`ah_`i_`mZanY`rWasVbwUbxUbzGae7hP0iB0n00c44\ VAAMFo`ILDPT6Ya0ej0mf2heccbG_`OYYXXXXWZeUZnRYxOYzN\ YzOZsQYmRYeTWZTUUUVUVVOUXJWXDXY8ZY3`xpzunzrlxpkumi\ rjgnigkedhccebbbZZZXXXUUURRROOOOOOMMMJLJGLHFJGCIDA\ IA8H85G54G33H42I51J61L71M80M90OA0PB0RC0SD0UE0UG0VG\ 0XI0YJ0ZK0ZL3nZDzm4rZ0eL0`N0YO0VQ0SQ0PU1NV2KY3JZ3G\ b5Ec7Df7BhBGkFJmJNnOSrQVs } frm:SliceJulibrot4 {; draws most slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=z^(p5)+c |z|<=9 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
