The reason -- I was too busy with other ; things on Wednesday Nov. 24 to do a proper search for the image ; for Nov. 25. ; ; Today's image is named "Mount Mountain", a fine name for a ; fractal mountain if ever there was one. The mountain exists ; mostly in the human mind, though partly in the parent fractal ; that is created when the formula Z^(1.1)+C is iterated 11 levels ; up the multi-dimensional complex logarithmic hyperladder with no ; function applied to the works. ; ; I rated the image at a 7, which is not too bad for a fractal ; mountain with a touch of snow on its peak. ; ; The calculation time of 12-3/4 minutes is admittedly slow, but ; then good things are worth waiting for, and the calculation can ; always be bypassed by going direct to the finished image on the ; FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Sun in the morning gave way to clouds in the afternoon here at ; Fractal Central on Wednesday, while the temperature reached no ; higher than a chilly 45F +7C. The fractal cats spent most of ; the day watching their television, which is what they see on the ; other side of the window when they sit on their shelf. ; ; My day was occupied getting the work caught up before the big ; holiday. FL busied herself picking up the goodies for the ; Thanksgiving feast. If we're lucky, only two guests will show ; up; if we're not, it could be six. The next FOTD will be posted ; in 24 hours, possibly as little as 14 hours. Until whenever, ; take care, and what will be the next big breakthrough? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Mount_Mountain { ; time=0:12:49.73-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=ident passes=t center-mag=-0.0853596/0.776714/7.814454/1/-142.5/0 params=1.1/0/11/525 float=y maxiter=32767 inside=253 logmap=63 periodicity=6 colors=000QGaQH`QH_PIYPJXOKWOLVOMTNNSKORHOQHPOHQNG\ RMGSLGYJFUIFVHFVGGWHGRIHRIHRJIRKIRKJWLJWLJWMKWNKWN\ LWOLRPMRPMRQNRQNRRNRSORSORTPRTPRUQRVQRVRRWRRXRRXSR\ YNRYORZOR_PR_PR`OT_PS`PR`QQaQQaQPbRObRNcRNcSMdSLdN\ _eOZeOYfOXfPXgPWgPVgQUhQUhQTiRSiRSjRRjSQkSPkSPlbOl\ bNmbNmcMncLncKndKodJodIpeHpeHqeGqfFrfFrfEsgDsgCrgC\ mhBhhAccFZZKUUPTPUKKZFFcEAcE5cE3bE3aE4`E4`E4dE4cD4\ bD4bD5aD5`D5`D5_D5ZD5YD5YC6XC6WC6VC6VC6UC6TC7SC7SC\ 7RB7QB7QB7PB7OB8NB8NB8MB8LB8KA8KA9KA9KAUcAUKAmKAUc\ AmKAUK9Uc9mK9UK8UK8mK8Uc8UK7mK7UK7Uc6zE6cD6zD6cD5c\ D5zD5cD5cD4zD4cD4cD3zD3cD3cC3zC2cC2cC2cC1cC1cC1cC1\ cC0cC0cC0cC0cJ4cP7IWBMaEPhIQgHRgHSfHSfHTeGUeGVdGVd\ GWdGXcFYcFYbFZbF_aE_aE``Ea`Eb`Em_Dm_DmZDmZDmYCmYCm\ YCmXCmXCmWBmWBmVBmVBmUAmUAmUAmmAmmAmm9mm9mmzmmzmmz\ mmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmmzmm\ zmmzmmzmmzmmzmmz00ammzmmz } 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|
