The exact location lies quite ; deep in the eastern, (main bay), side of the north branch, ; though still within the range of the speedy conventional math ; routine. ; ; The name "The Founding Father" has nothing to do with history or ; civics, it refers to the Mandelbrot set as the father of all ; fractals. ; ; The math rating of a lowly 3 is mostly due to the extreme ; familiarity of the expression Z^2+C and the unlimited things it ; does. The art rating of a 7, when combined with the rocket-fast ; calculation time of only a few seconds, makes the image well ; worth the simple chore of calculating it. ; ; Make life more simple by checking the finished image on one of ; the following web sites: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Clouds prevailed most all day here at Fractal Central today, but ; the sun did manage to break through later in the afternoon, ; leading to a fine evening. The temperature of 77F 25C was as ; close to perfect as it is possible for a day to be. The fractal ; cat burrowed under the chair cover shortly after lunch, and ; spent most of the afternoon in hiding. The fractal humans ; passed the time pondering the possible pitfalls of our modern, ; 'advanced', increasingly-technology-based western culture. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in a day or two. Until then, take ; care, and when humans become extinct, who will remember us? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= TheFoundingFather { ; time=0:00:20.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=mandel center-mag=-0.7499841692570\ 846/+0.01444653206443146/2.040464e+012/1/-31/0 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=16000 inside=0 logmap=-1650 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000cUlcUndUqeUsfUuhVwiWvjXujYtkZtl`slbrmdqm\ fqnipolooonpqnqsmqulrxkrzkiudaqYUlSMhLEcE6_89YACWB\ EVD00A00A00A00A00A00A00A00A00ATXNV_QYeT`i`cqmhrols\ zkzxmwqmwmjrfglcdg`aaY_XVXRSULPRGMOAJM5GN7IN8JNAKN\ BMNDNNEOOGPOHROISOKTOLVONWPOXPQYPR_PT`PUaPVbSYcU`d\ XceZefahgckhfnihpigldfg_ecVd_QcVLbRGaNB_PEYQGXSIVT\ LUVNSWPRYSPZUO`WMaZLc`JdbIfeGggFhiLchQZhWUh`PhfKhk\ FhqAhv5hpAjjEleJm_NoVSqPWrK`tEdv9hwAevAcuBatB_sCXr\ CVqDTqDRpEOoEMnFKmFIlFGlILjKQhMVfO_dQdbSi`UnZWsXYx\ WJkT5ZQ6_S6`U6`V6aX6aY7b_7ca7cb7dd7de8bd8`c9Zc9Xb9\ VbATaARaBQ`BO`BM_CK_CIZDGZDEYDDYFJWGPVHVTI`SKfQLlP\ MrNNxMLtLKqLJnLIkLHhKGeKFbKD_KCXKBUJARJ9OJ8LJ7IJAK\ MDMOGNQIPSLQUOSWRTYTV_WWaZYc`ZeeVfjSgoPhfUeYZbPc_H\ hXKdVNaUQZTTVRVSQYPP`LNcIMfFLhCKgBLfALe9Ld8Mc8Mb7M\ a6N`5N_5NZ4OY3OX2OX2OY4MY6LY7KY9IYBHYCGYEEYFDZHCZJ\ AZK9ZM8ZO6ZP5ZR4ZS3ZV4ZY5 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
