Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's quickie FOTD-ette takes us extremely deep into the negative X-axis of the Mandelbrot set, where we find -- what else but a midget. This area is the first part of the M-set explored by almost every newbie, so I could not give the image a rating. I named it simply "FOTD-ette Number-2". The unusual vividness of the colors is perhaps the only saving feature of the image. Though the magnitude of the image is well within the range of arbitrary precision math, the area is a very fast one, resulting in a parameter file that will finish in one minute or less on the SOTA units that do not panic when a DOS program is booted. Those with such panic-stricken machines may view the completed image on the FOTD web site at: Cloudy and blustery weather, with a high temperature of only 46F 8C, kept the fractal cats confined to the indoors here at Fractal Central on Monday. Their confinement didn't bother them however, since they have yet to go outside. The continuing work kept me confined to the computer. I would rather have gone out. The next FOTD is due to appear in 24 hours, and it well might do just that. Until next time, take care, and be at one. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
