The minibrot is located on a filament in the ; eastern suburbs of the large minibrot on the main stem of the ; four-dimensional HyperMandelbrot set. ; ; Everything is normal until we approach the boundary of the ; minibrot, where instead of a sharp fractal edge, we find a fade- ; off to a circular area of smoothness. This might be an artifact ; of imprecision, but if so, it is the most precise imprecision I ; have ever come upon. ; ; I rated the over-hurried image at a 5, and named it "Something ; is Wrong". The calculation time of 26 seconds makes up for any ; lack of quality or lack of interest. ; ; And as always, the finished image may be viewed on the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; Wednesday at Fractal Central featured morning sun, afternoon ; clouds and evening snow, with a temperature of 18F -8C. The ; fractal cats forgot the drafty window and found the heat. ; ; My day was unfairly busy, but who ever said that life was fair? ; Due to the lateness of today's FOTD, the next FOTD could be ; posted in about 12 hours. Until then, take care, and unfairness ; reigns supreme. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Something_is_Wrong { ; time=0:00:26.37-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=HyperMandelbrot2 float=y center-mag=-1.742567447895688/+0.005947579792857/\ 3.93563e+007/1/-2.5/0 params=0/0/0/0/0.2/0/1e-090/0 maxiter=2300 inside=0 logmap=65 periodicity=0 colors=000SLoPKlMJhJIcDH_KGXRFUYERcDPjCMq6Jw0Horck\ iYhaTdTOaLI_CDX4B_BIbHPcOUfUai`hlfosQnWES836D5DI7K\ N9RSBYXDdaFkfHrkIygNsdSm`WhY`bVeXRiSOnMLrHNpOPoURn\ _TlfVklXjrYixZli_nV`pGZmMXkRViXTfaRdgPblN`qMQeLFUL\ 5IJCEHJBiYRdWO_TMUQJPOHKLEFJCHMEJPFLSGNUHBghMUoXHv\ VOmTUeR_YQeQThMWkIZnF`qBct8fw4hz1cs7_lDWeJS_OWufSY\ POB8PGDPKHPOMPSQPWVP_ZPcbLhcHldDqe9ufKqZUmRcjJelOg\ mSioXjp`lrensiotmbfbRUTFHJ3496QECWFH`GNfHSkIXpJWqI\ WqHVrGUsFUsETtDDbzFdvGerHgnIhjKifLkbMl_NnWPoSQpORr\ KSsG9YtB_qC`nDblEciFdgHfdIgaJh_KjXLkVMlSOnPPoNQpKR\ rISsFul8fpBP9vQLjRX_ShOcfbbg`ahZ`iX`jW_kUZlSYmQYnP\ XoNWpLVqJVrIUsGTtEUeETjDToDSZgT_eT`dTacTbaTc`Td_Te\ YTfXTgWThVTiTTiSTjRTkPTlOTmNTnMToKTpJTqITrGTsFTtE0\ bnAhaKnP1rM3sL5sK7sK9sJBsJDsIFsHGtHItGKtGMtFOtEQtE\ StDp7cVBv`9vf7vk6vfVUbs2`r4Zr6Yq8Wq9UqBTpDRpFQpG4q\ U9sYEtaJudOvhUwlzxrzyzzzz } frm:HyperMandelbrot2 {; periodicity must be turned off a=(p1),b=(p2): q=sqr(a)-sqr(b)+pixel, b=(p3+2)*a*b+p4, a=q, |a|+|b| <= 100 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
