; July 30, 1997: Dingbat ; ; dingbat ; ; Fractal visionaries: ; ; Today's fractal, which I assume will be posted on time, takes up where ; yesterday's left off -- in the spread-out East Valley area of the ; negative X-axis midget of the Z^2.003 mandeloid -- this time sliced in ; the YW direction. Although I drew the picture with XY-axis symmetry, ; the Y-axis is not actually symmetrical. It is, however, so close to ; being symmetrical that the difference is insignificant. ; ; Some of the swirling patterns scattered throughout the image are quite ; attractive. They remind me of those old hot-metal printer's ornaments I ; once worked with, so I named the fractal "Dingbat". The colors could ; probably be improved upon if anyone cares to try. ; ; In a day or so, I'll decide on better names for the other four slices of ; the julibrot figure. "Mandelbrot" and "Julia" are well defined, but the ; terms XZ, XW, YZ, and YW are ambiguous, meaning different things to ; different people. As it is now, even I am constantly getting mixed up ; with those clumsy axis names. ; ; Today's image has been faithfully posted to the two fractal picture ; groups. Tomorrow's fractal will be on time, but that's all I know about ; it at the moment. ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; START 19.6 FILE============================================= Dingbat { ; time=0:00:05.60-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=1960 type=formula formulafile=jul-97.par formulaname=ManN-YW passes=1 center-mag=0/0/54.404\ 36/0.1176 params=0/-1.7431/2.003/0 float=y maxiter=500 inside=253 logmap=yes symmetry=xyaxis periodicity=10 colors=000I52I52I42I42H32H32H22H22G11H22I32J42J53K\ 53L63M73N84N94OA4PB4QB5RC5SD5SE5TF6UG6VH6WH6WI7XJ7\ YK7UI5WJ6YK7_K8aL9cMAeNAgOBiPCkPDmQEoRFnSFmSFlTFkT\ EjUEiVEhVEhWEgWEfXEeYDdYDcZDbZDa_D``D_`DZaCYaCXbCW\ cCWcCVdCUeCTeCSfBRfBQgBPhBOhBNiBMiBLjAKkAJkAJlAIlA\ HmAGnAFn9Eo9Do9Cp9Cp9DpBEpCFpDFqEGqGHqHIqIJqJJrKKr\ LLrNMrONrPNsQOsRPsSQsTRsVRtWStXTtYUtZUu_VuaWubXucY\ udYveZvf_vg`viavjawkbwlcwmdwnewpexqfxrgxshxtjzwiyv\ hwtgvsfuretqdrocqnapm`nk_mjZliYkhXifWheVgdUgcTgbSm\ aRk_QjZPnYOmXNlWMjULiTKmSJlRIjQHiOGgNFfMEjKDiJCgIB\ fHAjG9iF8hE7fC6eB2a63b85c96eB8fC9gEAcGBdICeJEfLFgM\ GhOHiQIjRKkTLlUMmWNnXMjWMjWLkWLkWKfVKfVJgVJgUIgUIh\ UHhUHhUGiTGiTFiTFjTEjTEjSDkSDkSCgSCgSBhRBhRAhRAiQ9\ iQ9dQ8dQ2a13c45d76fA8hD9iFBkICmLEnOFpRHnUIoXJoVKlS\ KhMKiFKe9Lh4Kg3Kg3Kk3Kk3Kj3Kj3Ji3Ji3Ji3Jh3Jh2Jg2Jg\ 2Jg2If2If2Ie2Ie2zzzId2Ic2 } frm:ManN-YW { z=real(p1)+flip(real(pixel)), c=imag(p1)+flip(imag(pixel)): z=z^p2+c, |z| <= 16 } ; END 19.6 FILE=============================================== ;
