But it is ; rotated a bit clockwise and surrounded by much smaller minizexpe ; fractals disconnected from the main body. Today's scene is ; located in what appears to be an East Valley of the largest ; satellite minizexpe, which lies just south of the southwest ; period-2 bud of the main zexpe. ; ; I named the image "Purple Pancakes", not a very appetizing name ; but fully appropriate when one attempts to count all the purple ; blotches scattered about the scene. ; ; The art and math ratings are unexceptional, since the image's ; tricks have already been done many times in the past. The image ; is still totally new however, and well worth the 1-1/2 minutes ; required to rename and run this letter as a parameter file. Of ; course, the nuisance of running the parameter file may be ; avoided by checking the finished image on one of the web sites. ; ; The web sites may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Typical summer weather prevailed here at Fractal Central today, ; with a mix of sun and clouds, a temperature of 90F 32C, high ; humidity and the expected thunder clouds in sight, though not at ; FC. The fractal cat made the most of things by sleeping and ; eating. The humans, who had their holiday on Friday, kept watch ; on things. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in the foreseeable future. Check ; at regular intervals, because who knows? the future might be ; tomorrow. Until whenever, take care, and when things are going ; wrong, forget the bright side of things with the associated ; positive attitude. It's a lot of unfounded wishful thinking. ; Get with reality, forget the feel-good dreams, develop an honest ; negative attitude, and look for the dark side. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Purple_Pancakes { ; time=0:01:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=ident float=y center-mag=-0.5450986126031908/-0.9537212212288588\ /2.034e+008/1/55/0 params=2.71828182845905/0/9999/0 maxiter=2200 inside=0 logmap=166 periodicity=6 colors=00045A66E89GACKCFOEISGLWIO_MScOWZRZTUeNWjHZ\ oBat5hw0mx0ty0zz0wy0uu0tr0rp0mo0mn0mm0ml0mk0hj0ci0\ Zh0Tg0Sf0Se0Rd0Qc0Qb0Pa0O`0O_0NZ0MY0MX0LW0KV0KU0JT\ 0JS0IR1IR0HQ0HP0GO0FN0FM0EL0DK0DJ0CI0BH0BG0AF09E09\ D08C07B07A0690580mVzlUzkTzjSziQzhOzgMzfKzeIydHvbGt\ `Fq_FoYElWDjUCgTCeRBbPA`OAYM9WK8TI7RH7OF6MD5JC5HA4\ E83C62952731410200K00K00K00M60B00KA0T00K00ISFGPDEM\ CCJAAF89C679556333117KU6KU6KU5KU5KU4KU4KU4KU3KR3KO\ 2IL2FI2DF1AC179056023JGcIFbIFaHF`HE_HE_GEZGDYGDXFD\ WFCWECVECUEBTDBTDBSDARCAQCAPBAPB9OB9NA9cA8cA8c98`9\ 7Z87X87W86V76U76S75Q65O65M55K54I54G44A439438337327\ 2262252141131131020010000FT0AJ059FBRECQEEQEEPDEPDK\ UDKUDKUCKUCKUCKZCKZBKZBKZBKZAKZAKcAKcAKc9Kc9Kc9Kc9\ Kc8Kc8Kc8Pm7Pm7Pm7Pm7Pm6Pz6Pz6Uz6Uz5Uz5Uz5Uz4Uz4Uz\ 4Uz4Uz3Uz3Uz3Uz3Uz2Uz2Uz2Uz1Uz1Uz1Uz1Uz0Uz0Uz0UzCU\ zAUz9UzAUzAUzAUzAUzAUzAUz } 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|
