(The hyperspiral is another name for ; the hyperladded.) By no strange coincidence, 0.707106781 is the ; reciprocal of 1.4142135624, the square root of 2. ; ; The resulting parent fractal is a monster with more convolutions ; than a street map of Tokyo. Today's image lies in the Seahorse ; Valley area of the parent, though one would never guess it by ; looking at the parent. Rarely have I seen such an obscure ; Seahorse Valley. ; ; The rating of a 6 is a sign that I am not very impressed with ; the image. We have seen too many similar images over the past ; 15 years of the FOTD. ; ; The name "Square Root Reciprocal" describes the expression that ; created the image. ; ; The calculation time of 3-1/4 minutes is slow, though still ; faster than yesterday's. Visit the web sites for a speedier way ; to view the image. ; ; View the finished image at: ; ; ; ; A high-definition rendering is at: ; ; ; ; The back images are at: ; ; ; ; A near perfect day passed by peacefully here at Fractal Central ; today. The fractal cats heartily approved of the near cloudless ; skies and temperature of 84F 29C. The humans went through the ; day with nothing exceptional to report. The next FOTD will be ; posted in more than an hour but not as much as a week. Until ; whenever that might be, take care, and it seems we're becoming ; so frantic to stay healthy that we have forgotten how to live. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Sqrt_reciprocal { ; time=0:03:15.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=cosxx passes=1 center-mag=+0.8559664295/-0.0636040039/13101/1/\ 50/0 params=1.4142135624/0/0.707106781/0 float=y maxiter=3750 inside=0 logmap=146 periodicity=6 colors=000JBKIAII9HH8FG8EF7CE6AE59D57C46B34B33C43C\ 53C63C73C83C93GA6KB9OCCSDEWEH_EKcFNgGPkHSoIVsIXoHW\ lGVhFUeEUaDTZDSVCRSBRPAQL9PI9OE8OB7N76M45L15L4BS6G\ Y8McARiCQoRPjQKeQFaPAYPAUQCPRELSGHTHITJJULKVMLWONW\ QzXRzYTzZVz_Wz_Yz`_za`zbbzbdzcezdgzeizejzZdzTZzMUz\ GOzAJzAIzAIzAHzAHzAGzAGsAFsAFsAFrAErAEqADqADqACzAC\ z99zACzAEzBHzBJzCLzCOzDQzDSzEVzEXz9PzCUzEZzGbVJgaL\ lhFqpJpoNpoQpoUooXoo`ondnngnnknnqppnnnklmhjlehkbgj\ `eiYchVagS`fPZeMXzKVzHUzESzBQz8Oz7Rz4Mz6Nz7Oz8Pz9Q\ zBRzCRzDSzETzGUzHVzIVzJWzLXzMYzNZzOZzQ_nR`oSapTbqY\ etUbqR`nOYkLWzHTzERzBOz4Lz6Mz8MzAMzCMmDMmFMmHMmJMm\ LMmMMmOMmQMmSMmUMmVMmXMmZMm`MmbMmzMEzMDzMCzMBzIBzK\ AzMAzO9zQ9zS8zU8pWmrYms_mtamvcmwecxgcyiczgczeczdcz\ bcz`czczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzcbzcezcgzcjzclzcozcq\ zcszmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzm\ zzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmz } 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|
