The ; rating of a 7 is unexceptional, but still better than the ; parade of discombobulated pachyderms that just finished passing. ; ; The calculation time of just under 13 minutes is admittedly ; slow. Most of the slowness is due to the fact that the scene ; lies so deep in its parent valley, where the iteration count is ; unusually high. ; ; But why not escape the burden of running the included parameter ; file by viewing the finished image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; With a high temperature of 86F 30C, Friday was a bit too warm ; and muggy for total comfort here at Fractal Central. And in ; addition, the crystal blue skies of the past few days turned a ; hazy gray. The fractal cats didn't mind it a bit however. The ; intruding tomcat appears to have gone off to prowl elsewhere. ; ; My day was unusually busy, busy enough in fact that things ; started to get out of control. But the panic was nipped in the ; bud, and in the end everything was as it should have been. The ; next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, ; and if you work at it hard enough, you too could become a ; professional skeptic. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Eastern_Outpost { ; time=0:12:56.54-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+3.254236186523234/+0.9577664576000631/\ 2.3288e+007/1/55/0 params=-4.5/-1.35/-1.1/-7.2/0/\ 0/0/0 float=y maxiter=16000 inside=0 periodicity=10 colors=44047q4Bo4Fo4Jl4Ol4Si4Wi4`g4dg4ie4ne5sb7z`5\ xb5sb5ne5ie5dg5`g5Wg5Si5Fe5Jl5Fi4Bl47m44o44p44q4Hr\ 44t4It4Ku4Ku5Mu4Mu4Ov4Pv4Sv4Sw4Uw4Uw4Wx4Wx4Yx4Yy4_\ y4`z4cz4dz4gz4hz94SF4IM4AS42440Z40zSizUbzWWzZPz`Iz\ bCzd6zg0zi0zl0zg0zl0zp0zs0zx8zzGzzNvzWpzelzogzubzu\ `zu`zu`zq`vo`niZgeZbbZWYZQUZMSZFNW9IW5GW4CW48W46U4\ 2U40U40U40U40U40`40d4CiJSndelg`liYllWilSinPipNgpIg\ sGgvEdvAdx8dz6bz2bz0bz0bz0g`EiBYg4ul4qn4bp4Ps4Cv52\ x90zF0zJ0zO0zQ0vS0pS0lU0gW0bW0ZZ0UZ0Q`0Mb0Hb0Dd49d\ 85gC4iG4iL4lP4dScWclRiz4tz4uz4tz4lx4bl4Wb4NU4GM48B\ 424404404404404404404404F44bW4ZP7WLDUGJSCOQ8UM2`J0\ gH0nF0sD0z90z70z50z40z40z40z40z40z40v40p40i40d40Z4\ 0U44`50Q46F4P54i94gB4gD4eF4eH4bJ4bO4`Q4`S4YU4YW4WZ\ 4Wb4Wd4Ug4Ui5Sl9SnBPsFPvHNxJNzOLzQLzSLzMAzH2zB0z70\ z40z40z40z40z40z40z40z40z70x90sD0pH0lJ0gO0bQ2`U6WZ\ AS`E44u44u44u44u44t44t44q } 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
