And that's what I named it. The ; parent fractal is nothing -- the blank screen that results when ; the (1/Z)+C fractal starts to morph into the Z^2+C fractal. But ; the blankness turned interesting when I tried the 'bof60' inside ; fill on it. ; ; It turned interesting enough, in fact, that the resulting image ; earns an 8. If I had more time to work on the colors, I might ; have brought the image up to a rating of 9. ; ; The result of calculating the included parameter file is worth ; the 8 minutes or so it takes to do the calculation. And if 8 ; minutes is too long to wait, the finished image is available for ; immediate viewing on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Heavy clouds, high humidity and showers of rain kept Thursday ; from being acceptable to the fractal cats of Fractal Central. ; The temperature of 82F 28C was fair enough, but the cats demand ; sun. My day was unusually busy. When I fell behind however, FL ; stepped in to bail me out. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and don't ask 'what'. These questions are too easy. Ask ; 'why'. These questions are far more difficult but far more ; satisfying. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Star_Nursery { ; time=0:08:09.33-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=DivideJulibrot passes=1 center-mag=1.6021/13.942/5.9192/1.1171/-17.1932875\ 494030064/-6.00330107850168204 params=86/0/86/0/\ -0.77/0/0/0/-1/1 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=bof60 logmap=yes periodicity=10 colors=000zzzmszcfzUXmKShKNcK5AK0AK0AK4AP7JUCGYGDa\ KBcNJePPgQSiRVkRYmR`mRdmRemRemRfmRfmRgmQgmPfmNdmKb\ kJ`iIYgHVfGTeFSfDSh1Tj6WlBYnG`pIbrLetOgvRjxUlyXnvZ\ _sQLpI6mHCkGHhFMfERdDWaC`_BeYAjaDddG_gJVjMQmOLpRGs\ UBvX6yZ1tV3oR4kO6fK7aG8YDAT9BO5CK2EF0FB0GJ5`REuPCt\ NAtL8tJ6tH4tG3tccih_ZmWOrTEgYEYbENgEDkEHjIKiLNhORg\ SUfVXeY_d`ccdfbgiajl`mp_qsZtvYwyYztXypXxlXwhXvcXu_\ XtWWsSWrNWqJWpFWoBWn7WnAVlDUkFUjITiKThNSfPSeSRdVQc\ XQb_P`aP_dOZfOYiNXkNW`FUQ8SF0Q40P90NE1MI5LN9JRDIWG\ H_KGdOEhSDmWCqZBr_Fr_Is_Ls_Pt_St_Vt_Yu`TvaPvbLwbHx\ cCxd8ye4ye0nZ7dSDVLKLEQB8WDAVFBVGCVIDUJEULFUMGTOIT\ PJTRKSSLSUMSVNRXORYPR`MTcJVeHWhEYkB_m9`p6br4co5`l6\ Yi7Vg8Sd9Pa9MZAJXBGUCDRDAOE7ME5LE9KEDJEHIELHEPGETF\ EXEE`DEdCEhJMkPUnWaqaisaUkaFda0Y_1ZZ2_Y3_X4`W5aV5a\ U6bT7bS8cR9dQ9dPAeOBfNCfMDgLDgJCgICgHBgFBgEAgCAgB9\ gA9g88g78g57g47g13j37g5Ad } frm:DivideJulibrot {; draws 4-D slices of DivideBrot Julibrots pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), aa=-(real(p5)-2), bb=(imag(p5)+0.00000000000000000000001), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=sqr(z)/(z^(aa)+bb)+c |z|< 1000000 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
