It is a scene on the negative stem of the fractal ; that results when the Mandelbrot set starts to take on Z^13 ; characteristics. Most of the minibrots in the image have 12 ; lobes like proper Z^13 minibrots should. The oval-shaped mini- ; brot in the center of the image however has 25 lobes, which is ; definitely not what should appear in a Mandeloid of order-13. ; ; I suspect this minibrot is a blending of two normal minibrots, ; though I can't quite figure out where the 25 lobes come from. ; 12 lobes plus 12 lobes equals 24, not 25. ; ; Regardless, the image with its interconnected network of spidery ; filaments has enough interest to rate a 6. The name "Doubled ; Troubles" refers to the central minibrot with the wrong number ; of lobes. ; ; Unlike yesterday's slow-poke image, today's calculates in a mere ; 16 seconds, which doesn't leave time to go to the kitchen and ; pour a drink before it finishes. The finished product is avail- ; able for instant viewing satisfaction on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The spell of fine weather here at Fractal Central came to an ; end on Monday as heavy clouds moved in. No rain fell, but the ; fractal cats did not approve of the drabness. The temperature ; of 75F 24C did little to relieve their let-down. My day was ; average. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until next ; time, take care, and who can be sure that truth even exists. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Doubled_Troubles { ; time=0:00:16.33-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=NewDivideBrot function=recip float=y center-mag=-11.2582359658/0/35243/1/-90/0 params=13/6.5 maxiter=275 inside=0 periodicity=10 colors=000XxIcyCjy6py0qv4rs8rpCsmGtkKthOueSvbWv__w\ YcxVgxSkyPoyNr5wxVNXZOUbOScUNcZJdcFdhBgMFh0Je1Lb1L\ Y2LU2KP3KK3KF4KB4KHCKMJKRQKWXI`gEerAzz0kjKkUXlcjmm\ zn`aoPHmxzhwzzvzzurzthzsczrZvrUrqKmq8hqBcqEZpHUpKz\ pNzpQzmPzkOziOzfNzdMzbMzLdz3wz8uzCszGqzLozPmzTkzXi\ zUjzSkzQlzOmzLnzJozHpzFqzKkzOfzSazXXz`SzdNzcO2zz3z\ z4zz5zz6zz6zz9zzCzzEzzHzzJzzLzzNzzOzzQzzSzzTzzUzzV\ zzWzzXzzYzzZzzZzzYzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzzZzz\ ZzzezzSzzmzz3zz5zz6zz7zz9zzAzzBzzDzznzzrzkqzlpzloz\ mozmdzeVzZLzSBzLJzPQzSYzWdzZ_zYVzYRzYMzYIzYDzY9zY4\ zY0zY3zW6zV9zTCzSFzRIzPLzOOzMRzLTzKZzQdzWizaozguzm\ zzrvzqrzpnzojznfzmbzlZzlVzkRzjNziJzhFzgCzgOzd_zbkz\ `vzZwzgxzoxzwpzvhzv`zvUzuMzuEzu7zu8zt9ztAztBztCztD\ ztEztFztGztHztIztKztMztOztQztSztUztWztYzt_ztazjbza\ dzTezJgzAhz1gz4gz6gz8gzAgzDgzFgzHgzJgzMgzOgzQgzSgz\ VgzXgzZgz`Xz_Nz_Dz_KzURzO } frm:NewDivideBrot { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), b=imag(p1)+0.00000000000000000001: z=z^2*fn1(z^(a)+b)+c |z| < 1000000 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
