But this is on the new scale. On the ; old scale it would rate a respectable 6. The name "Belief in ; the Outcome" means whatever the fractal fan wishes. ; ; The actual image shows a minibrot rather deep in the parent ; fractal that results when the formula Z^(1.75)+C is iterated ; just one level down the logarithmic ladder. ; ; This parent fractal is a lopsided thing squashed on the X-axis, ; with one large mis-shaped bud on the north side and two buds on ; the south side. Today's scene is located in a kind of East ; Valley of an out-of-place but large minibrot just inland of the ; northeast shore line of the main bay. ; ; The calculation time of 8-1/2 minutes is admittedly more than ; the image is worth. The way out of this dilemma is to view the ; already-calculated image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and in high definition at: ; ; ; ; The classic FOTD web site, with all the past images, may still ; be accessed at: ; ; ; ; though I would not count on it being there forever. ; ; After Saturday's downpour, Sunday's scattered heavy clouds ; seemed fair indeed here at Fractal Central. The temperature of ; 59F 15C was spoiled by a strong wind however, which made it feel ; quite chilly in the open. The fractal cats chased the sun ; during the times it was out, and slept when the clouds moved in. ; The humans took it easy most all day. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and rational thinkers believe in quarks, which no one has ; seen, and at the same time, do not believe in ghosts, which many ; have seen. I guess it's all in the mind. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= BeliefInTheOutcome { ; time=0:08:24.22-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=jim.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+0.9062916652297548/+0.3114101611961053\ /7.976225e+010/1/-97.5/0 params=1.75/0/-1/0 float=y maxiter=5200 inside=0 logmap=632 periodicity=6 colors=000PGPPJHPIAPG2PZmPEcPEKPFIPThPN_PHR4BI259u\ jmmdffZ`_TVTNPLHIEBC706zcUkKlcHdWDXOcOGcG8c8ccEmcC\ zcAUc8Mc6Fc47c2LcRIUNFUKDUGAUD7UA5zm2zm5zm3zm2zm1z\ 1HzMDzHAzD6z83z4qzIRz9xzsdzOUzIzzCzz6zzMzzJzzGzzDz\ zBzz8zz5zz2zzNzzezzgzzizzjzzlzzmzznzzhzzczzZzzUzzO\ zzRzzUzzZzzczzhzzmzzmzzrzzvzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzUNHUM\ YULWUKUUJSUIQUHOUGMUFKT2ATp5MCLNHzKFImCmDACus96563\ 23C5VA4R93N73J62F41B317103e_A_U8UP7OK5IF4CA2651x`Q\ WcPRYLMSHIMEDHA9B7453PjQLdMIZJFTGCND9H96B6353dHj6X\ N4QI3JD2D91640cI000027013EJXAEO79G348q3f_2SI1EzvCs\ nAlg9d_7YT6MM4EE3771xncUPKmaP`SIPJCC96psqkpicjaW_U\ OPNGEF877PmpXpWObOGQG8D88p46z35q24U23M12F1170uCWi9\ PY7JN4CB26gD0mB0V90z70I50C30610dcxrcR0cqNcnJceFcYB\ cP7cH3c8PcnKceGcYCcP8cH4c8mgw`zhPzUCzFzzyoznezdzzV\ zzKzzAzz6zz4zz2zz0zz0zz0zz07zz4zz2zzCzzAzz9zz7zz6z\ z4zz3zz1zzszzYzzTzzPzzLzz } frm:MandelbrotBC3 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100 p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*fn1(p/(2*PI)) r=real(p2)+PI-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
