The ; parent fractal generated by this formula is rather difficult to ; find. The default screen is totally black. A single outzoom ; reveals a circular black hole in a blue background. Only when ; the bailout radius is increased to a very large value, such as ; today's 100000000, and another outzoom is done, does the com- ; plete parent come into view. ; ; When this parent fractal is finally found, it roughly resembles ; the Mandeloid produced by the formula (-Z)^(1.1)+C, when it has ; been rotated 180 degrees. This parent has X-axis symmetry, ; which is interesting, but the most unusual thing about it is an ; obvious midget deep in the chaos on the northwest (and south- ; west) shores of the main bay. ; ; This midget is quite unusual. At first glance it appears to be ; non-critical, but a closer examination shows that it contains ; critically perfect sub-midgets. Today's scene is located deep ; in what appears to be an East Valley of the strange midget. ; ; I named the image "Inedible Goodies". Fractals might be 'good', ; but they are definitely inedible. I rated it at a 6. There is ; something about the coloring that leaves me unsatisfied. ; ; The calculation time of 5-3/4 minutes is fast enough to prevent ; boredom. The image may also be seen on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; A heavy thunder storm Tuesday night did not leave things any ; cooler here at Fractal Central on Wednesday morning. The day's ; high temperature of 95F 35C made outdoor life unpleasant for ; both man and cat. And speaking of cats, the fractal ones kept ; themselves cool under the air conditioner. Nicholas took a few ; nibbles at the tray of fresh green cat-grass, then returned to ; stretch out in the cool draft. ; ; My day was acceptable. The day's fractal could have been a ; little better, but you can't have everything. The next FOTD is ; scheduled in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and don't get ; fractal indigestion. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Inedible_Goodies { ; time=0:05:46.80-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-128.183733496438/+84.57447940128591/\ 927423.9/1/100/6.34389398990811704e-005 params=12/1.1/-12/1.11/0/100000000/0/0 float=y maxiter=6000 inside=0 logmap=659 periodicity=10 colors=0000Pe0Qe0Rf0Sf0Tg0Uf0Vg0Wg0Xh0Yi0Zk0_h0`i0\ ck0fm0hk0lj0pj0rh0oe0l_0gU0aN0XG0TB0Q40N00L00J00G0\ 0F00B20722422022422722B22F22G22I2BKBKKKSLS_P__Sg_V\ ngYvn`zvdzygzwjztnzrqzqtzkwzezz_zzUzzUzzUzzUzzUzzU\ zzUzzUzzUzzUzzQzzYzzeyzmyzpwvrwqtwmwwhzwdzw_zwVzwQ\ zwNzwLzwNzyKzyIzzGvzFqzDmzBjz9ez7`z5Wz4Sz2Nz0Iz0Fz\ 09z04z00z00z00z00z00z0BzDNzPYz_hwjrvtztzzqzynzvkzt\ hzqezpbzm_zkWzhUzgQzePzbLz`IzYFzWBzU7zS4yP0yN0yK0y\ I0yG0yN0vS0tY0qb0ph0mm0kq0jw0gz0ez0bz0`z0_z4SzDKtN\ BmV2db0fc0gb2ga5ia9j`Dj`GjbKmbNmbQocUpcWpc_pebrLeh\ IWpR4pPgp`gp`ep_ep`enjh_rkLzn5zqKzrUzrbzrkzrvzrzzr\ zzrzn_zzpKzKzzkzzhzzgzzdzzbzy_zyWzyVzySzyQzyNyyL__\ IvwFtwDrw9qw7__4nw2pt0qr0rp0tn0W_07LDIQNQVV__bgdjp\ hqwmyzqzzpwztnzygzzYzzPzzGzz5zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0\ zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz\ 0zz0yz0tz0pz0kz2DzG5zF0zF } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; 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)+(p4)), 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========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
