Check today's minibrot for a sample of mathematical ; damage. ; ; The minibrot in today's image is of order 2.000001, which means ; it should be barely distinguishable from an everyday quadratic ; minibrot, but today's minibrot looks nothing at all like a ; normal minibrot. It appears to be eroded and moth-eaten, most ; likely from the intense heat of nuclear fission. The same ; scrambled confusion exists in the surroundings, which appear to ; be trying to reach the usual 4,8,16... series, but are falling ; apart before getting there. It's a good thing the minibrot is ; about at the limit of resolution. Who knows what might lie ; deeper in its basin of attraction. ; ; The rating of a 7 is about average for FOTD images. The name ; "Outcome Infinite" means not quite as much as it implies. The ; calculation time of just under 7 minutes is slow by conventional ; math standards. Thank goodness for the web sites. ; ; The image may be viewed already calculated on the official FOTD ; web site at: ; ; ; ; and in high definition at: ; ; ; ; The original FOTD web site may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; The muggy conditions today here at Fractal Central made the ; temperature of 86F 30C feel warmer than it otherwise would have. ; The fractal cats had a thrill when Nicholas sensed a stray cat ; passing by, and both he and Cassie dashed to the window to make ; sure the cat continued on its way. The humans did what humans ; usually do on days that resemble thousands of other days. (No, I ; am not bored with life.) ; ; Unless armageddon arrives first, the next FOTD will be posted in ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if armageddon does arrive, ; I'M A GEDDON the heck outta here. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Outcome_Infinite { ; time=0:06:54.86-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotN passes=1 center-mag=-1.860582988052293/+0.00000500759982719\ /3.449945e+011/1/102.5/0 params=2.000001/0/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=32767 inside=0 periodicity=6 colors=000c8iZ9fTBcND`IEYOCUUAQ_8Ne6Jk4Fq2CmEYjPr`\ JpREoH9m74lGBjPIhYOg`QecRdeSbhTajU`iQ_iMZiIYiFXiBW\ i7Vi4Vc5QY6LS6HM7CG57B438426514611800B00E00H07J3EL\ 7HMBJOFQNISPBRR4QT0PV0QX1WZ2TK9_SGf_N_RLUJJOAII2GC\ 2F6VFzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzHSMbKW_FXYBXV7XT3X\ Q2YO2YL2YJ2YM2VO2SQ2PS2MU6JWAGYED_HBZB9Z57Z25Z23Z2\ 2`23b23c24e24g24h25j25k25f29b4CZ7GVAJOMLHYMAiNBaRC\ UUDNXEF`F7cF2fC2hA2i72k52l32n02o02q02rA3`O8JaD2bJ2\ bP2cV2c`2cf2VWGNMTFCe72rbHFfKEdIDcGDbECaCC`AC_8BZ6\ BX4AW2AV2AU29T29S28R28Q28X3AbEBiPDo_EjaDebC`cBWdAR\ f9Mg8Hh7Ci67j6Ce7Ha7LY7QT8UP8ZL8bH8dJ7eL7fM7gO7hQ6\ iR6jT6kU6hT7fS7dS7bR7`R7YQ8WP8UP8SO8QO8NN9LM9JM9HL\ 9FL9IKBLKCNKEQJFTJHVJIYJJ`ILbIMeIOhHPjHRmHSoHTcMYS\ RaGWf4`jAalGamManSaoYapbaqa`o``n__mZ_lYZkYZjXYiWYh\ VXgUXfUXeWWdYVd_UcaUccTbeSbgSaiRakQ`lQ`hMaeJaaGaZD\ aV9aS6aO3aL2aI2aK2`o4oi6l } frm:MandelbrotN {; Jim Muth b=p1, z=p2, c=p3+pixel: z=z^(b)+c, |z| <= 16 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
