But its calculation time of an equally measly 17 ; seconds means that almost no time will be wasted calculating it. ; ; The parent fractal combines just the tiniest bit of Z^(-63) with ; Z^2 before adding C. This parent resembles a classic Mandelbrot ; set obscures by scalloped disks. Today's scene is located near ; the X-axis in an interesting area between the two largest disks. ; ; I added a modicum of interest to the not-so-impressive scene by ; rendering it with the outside set to 'tdis'. ; ; Then I named the image "A Quick Journey" because I found it in ; less than 5 minutes. And I rated it a 5 because I found it in ; less than 5 minutes. ; ; The final result may be seen by running the included parameter ; file or by viewing the completed image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The sky was blue enough, but a few too many puffy white clouds ; kept Sunday from being absolutely perfect here at Fractal ; Central. The temperature of 84F 29C and low humidity were all ; that could be asked for, but those puffy clouds got in the way ; of the sun a bit too often. The fractal cats, unconcerned with ; minor cloud details, had a near perfect day anyway. ; ; My day was very good, which I would enjoy being able to say more ; often. The day's fractal was not quite so good, but no one ever ; claimed that this fractal world is perfect. The next FOTD, hope- ; fully a bit closer to perfection even if not quite there, will ; be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and embrace your ; reality before it gets away. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_Quick_Journey { ; time=0:00:17.04-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident center-mag=-0.840428912973/+0.001176307923/9345305\ /1/-115/0 params=1/2/1e-018/-63/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1000 inside=0 outside=tdis periodicity=10 colors=000P8W5BS`ibYg_WeXUcURaRP_ONYLLWIKXTKYcJZnJ\ ZxGYtEYpCXlAXh8Wd6W`4VX2VT9HIG48MBERIKWPQ`WWebajig\ oolmijkchiYggSefMdRBjNHkJNlGTmCZn8do5jp`GUbGVdGWfG\ XhGYjGZlG_mG`gI_bK_YLZTNZOOYJQYERYKTXPVWUWWZYVcZVa\ QM`HE_86i`xhapgbifcbedVdeOcfHcgAZjEVlIRnMNpPbzjYri\ TjhObhKVgFNgAFf68fDGbJN_QUXW`UcUXkN_sHbrJZrLVrNRrP\ NrRJrTFrVBrX7mRDhMIcGOZBTU5ZP0cUHVZXMclE`mHZnKXoNU\ pQSqTQqVLhOH`HCTA8L3GQ7OUAK_EHeHEkLBpOAnT9mX9l`8kd\ 7ii7hm6gq6fu8isAlrCnpEqoGtmIvlMwcQwVUwNQoPMhRIaTEU\ UANW6GY39Z7F`AKbDQdGVfK`hNejQklTpmZf_cXMX_OQbQJdSC\ gU6iVAiSEiPIiMRaLZULfMLTdBFv2Dw5Cw7AwA9wC7wF6wH4wK\ 3wMPBkKLgFVdBda6nZ2xWPUdVTc`TcfTclTcrTcwTcsUaoU_kU\ YhUWcPUZLTVHRQCQL8OH4NVK_gZktmwgicVeLZhNajOelPhoRl\ qSosTruUsqTtnSukRvgRwdQxaPxZPraXldcfgk`jrVly_hoddf\ i`XnXOsTEwQ5pV4iZ4bb3Wf3Pj3In2Br24v2Bt1Ir1Pp1Wn0bl\ 0ij0pi0gd7_`ESXLKTSCPYi5_ } 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
