In fact, today's ; FOTD is both brief and late. But Easter will soon pass, the ; heavy graphic work is already finished, and with any luck at ; all, things will be back in their accustomed routine by Tuesday. ; ; The fractal for today takes us to the Z^(1.25) Mandeloid as it ; appears 121 levels up the logarithmic spiral. At this lofty ; level, the fractal resembles little more than a shapeless blob ; with a few hints of equally-shapeless buds. The active little ; midget, which appears to be exploding near the center of today's ; image, is located just inland of the ragged bud on the northeast ; shoreline of the main bay of its shapeless parent fractal. ; ; With almost no time to devote to fine-tuning today's image, I ; could not give it a name or rating. But luckily the image is a ; fast one, rendering in only 2-1/3 minutes on my worn-out 10-year- ; old computer, which is well past the point of no return. So if ; the image disappoints, little time and effort will have been ; wasted. ; ; It is never a wasted effort however to visit the FOTD web page ; at: ; ; ; ; and view the finished FOTD images there. ; ; Saturday brought cold temperatures, some sunshine, heavy clouds ; and snow squalls to Fractal Central. The fractal cats interrup- ; ted their usual activities long enough to watch the snow fall, ; then, satisfied that all was well, they returned to their fun ; and games. ; ; My day was not too busy with serious work, but it was far from ; slow. Against my advice, fractal lady invited some friends to ; Easter dinner on Sunday, and I was selected to purchase the ; supplies. Oh well, unlike the FOTD, Easter comes only once a ; year. BTW, the next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, ; take care, and search for the meaning of fractals. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= FOTD_for_Apr_08_07 { ; time=0:02:21.66--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC2 center-mag=+0.7104895602\ 1611750/+0.34294555698040560/333.8528/1/5/2.061385\ 78429104768e-012 params=1.25/0/121/0 float=y maxiter=1200 inside=0 outside=tdis periodicity=10 colors=000X`CXbFWeIWgLWiOVlRVnUUqXUs_UuaVr`Vp`Wm`W\ k`Xh`Xf_Yc_Ya_YZ_ZX_ZUZ_SZ_PZ`NZ`KZ`IZZNWYSUXXSWaP\ UfNTkLSpIRuGQzEPuDPpDPlDOgCObCOZCNUBNPBNLBMGAMBAM7\ ANHDOQGPZJQgMQpPUnWXlaYf_Z`Y_VW_PUaQWcQXeQYgQZiQ_f\ Q`cRa`RbYRc_RdaRebRfaSbaT_`UX`VU`VRI5qFDoCKn9Sm6Zl\ 3fk0mj7gfDacKX_QRXXMTbGQhBNN0yV5jaAXhFJoK5E9jH9nK9\ qN9tQ9wF5l52a97WDCQGGKKLENP9LO6lx3gr4cm4_g4Vb4RX4N\ S4KAEJBDJCDJCCJDCJEBJEBJFAJFAJG9JH9JH8JI8JJ7JJ7JK6\ JK6JL5JM5JM4JN4sG42XK3WJ4WI5VH6VH6UG7UF8TE9TE9SDAS\ CBSCCRBDRADQ9EQ9FP8GP7GO6HO6IN5JN40gI2eH3dG4cF5bE6\ aE7`D8ZC9YBAXBBWACV9DU8ES7FR7GQ6HP5IO4M4FL7DLABKDA\ KF8sIoqKmpMknOilQgjSehUcgVbeX`cZZa`X_bVZdTXfRVhPTj\ NSkMTdOTYQTRSTLUSMSRMQQMPQNNPNLONKNOINOGMOFLPDLPBK\ PAJQ8IQ6IQ5HR3GR1GR0NZKTfbSe`SdZRcYRbWQaVQ`TP_SP_Q\ PZPOYNLM6OXMNWKNVJMUHMTGMTELSDLRBKQAKP8JO7JN5wzZrv\ VnrSjnPfjMbfJZT6ZT3YW6YY9 } frm:MandelbrotBC2 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100, p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*floor(p/(2*PI)), r=real(p2)-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
