I rated the image at a 7, which is ; somewhat above average, though not exceptionally so. ; ; The parent fractal can be described as vaguely resembling a ; classic Mandelbrot set, even though it has no East Valley and no ; negative spike. It does have lots of chaos on its eastern side ; however, and today's image is located in this chaos. ; ; The image is notable for the chaos in the background. Actually ; however, this chaos is not total. When it is enlarged, some ; degree of order does appear in certain places. ; ; The calculation time of 1-1/2 minutes is appropriately brief. ; Equally brief is the trip to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the completed image is or soon will be posted. ; ; Except for a slight chill in the air, Monday was a near perfect ; day here at Fractal Central. The Kodachrome blue of the sky was ; emphasized by a scattering of puffy white decorator clouds of ; the cumulus variety, while the temperature hovered around 64F ; 18C and the fractal cats sat on their shelf, wishing they could ; go out. ; ; My day, as well as FL's day was slightly slow, though still busy ; enough to keep boredom at bay. And at lunch, I wisely avoided ; getting drawn into another philosophical discussion about a ques- ; tion that cannot possibly be answered. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in a brief 24 hours. Until then, ; take care, and what kind of good luck has fate sent your way ; today? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Eight_Times_Around { ; time=0:01:29.80-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinalDivideBrot function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+0.8072128463303313/+0.0009535175175191\ /1.919037e+008/1/-69/0 params=1.2/1.1/100/0 float=y maxiter=1600 inside=0 logmap=82 periodicity=6 colors=000GAcB8g7AjBJlEPnIXpLfrOptazz_uzYnzWhtUboS\ YjQTeOP`MNYKNWKLUKJSKHQKFOKDMKDKKDKFDKJDKNDKRDKVDK\ ZDKbDLfDHjDEzzzzzBzwAzp9zfEzXJvTOuOStNStNStMSsMSsL\ SsLSsLSoKTkKUgJVcJW_IXWIYSHZPH_MZjP`gRbdTcbWe_YfY_\ zVazTYhPVzLSfIPeEMzAJc7Gb3Dz0IY7NpDSQzXMzaIzfEzjBz\ aJzUQzMXzEczDWzCPzBIzBBzBCzBCzBDzBDzBDzRWzU_zXbzZf\ zaizdmzfpzitzkwzlszmoznkzogzsJzpczq_zhQzjRzkSzlTzm\ UzoVzpWzqXzrOzrRzrTzrVzCyzJtzPpzVlz`hzfdzl`zgnzjiz\ mezp`zpYzqXzqXzqXzrXzrXzrXzNMzSOzXQz`RzeTziUznWzmP\ znRzoTzpUzqWzBCzIFzOIzULz`OzfRzlUz_SzfUzlWzalzdizg\ fzjdzmazpZzj5zmFzpOzfFzhIziKzkMzlOznRzoTzqVzDDzOIz\ YNzhSzHzzJGzPJzVMz`PzfSzlVzoTzDUzRVzdWzgczibzjazl`\ zm_znZzpYzqXzLIzXNzgSzIGzQKzXNzdRzkUz2lzegzjczn_zA\ EzGHzMJzRMzXOzbQzgTzmVzkCzmIzoNzqSz4xzFrzPlzZgzhaz\ M8zXHzgPzR5z`FziOzbRzeSzgTziUzlVznWzpXzTZz_YzeYzlX\ zBAzXMzzEzvOz07zJGzPDzKBz } frm:FinalDivideBrot { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1)+0.00000000000000000001: z=(-b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))-c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
