This is because today's parent fractal was initialized ; to a different critical point, which appears as the value of the ; real(p5) parameter. ; ; I used the Fractint program to plot a second critical point ; graphically. (Fractint can draw basic graphs in which critical ; points can be tracked down and measured.) I do not do this very ; often because the process is tedious, but in today's case the ; result was satisfying. I found a new fractal, resembling ; yesterday's parent in some aspects but differing in other ways. ; ; I named today's image "The Other Half" because it is a scene in ; a parent fractal that is the second critical slice of ; yesterday's Julibrot. ; ; Once again, the artistic value of 6 lags behind the math value ; of 7, which makes the 13-minute calculation time not much of a ; bargain. But the web sites are always there to save time and ; frustration. ; ; Be rational and unfrustrated. Check the finished images at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; With its totally cloudless skies, today would have been ; absolutely perfect if it had been just a few degrees warmer here ; at Fractal Central. As it was, the morning low of 43F +6C and ; afternoon high of 70F 21C were a little too chilly for relaxing ; in the outdoor shade. The fractal cat relaxed under a chair ; cover, where he spent the afternoon as little more than a lump. ; The fractal humans, who are anything but normal, had a normal ; day. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted when I get in the mood to do it. ; Long experience says that the time will be either 24 or 48 ; hours. To be sure when, check back at these times. Until ; whenever, take care, and when bad guys use guns to kill innocent ; people, the liberals say we should solve the problem by passing ; laws that will affect only the good guys who have guns. ; (Criminals don't obey laws.) This is crazy enough, but then the ; conservatives say we should solve the problem by increasing the ; number of guns in circulation, so we will be ready to protect ; ourselves from the bad guys. Would the rational side please ; stand up. ; ; ; Jim (reason prevails but no one wants to hear it) Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= The_Other_Half { ; time=0:13:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix3a function=ident passes=t center-mag=+0.04948459960925363/+0.000012428074251\ 36/2.714126e+010/1/-50/0 params=4/2/3/4/2/3/-100/5\ /0.2765676348110211/0 float=y maxiter=4250 inside=0 periodicity=6 colors=000ZGGYDHYAJX7KX4L_EHaODgOFmJKlMIlOGlQElSCl\ UAlW8nMAlY6jh3il4hn0coKZoRVoQPoDKlCFgCAcCAZC9UC9QC\ 9TC9YF5gJ2sPBrSJkUSdW_ZZhS`pLbxFdjIPXK9WK8VJ8TI8SH\ 7QG7PF6NE6MD6LD5JC5IB5GA4F94E83C73B639628527415311\ 00421210100xjRviQuhPtgPrfOqeOpdNncMmbMlaLk`Li_KhZK\ gYJeXIdWIcVHaUH`TG_SGZRFXQEWPEVODTNDSMCRLCPKBOJANI\ AMH9KG9YWhTZsQWkOTdMRXKOQILIGJBQRAZZAgfApnAcdMSWYD\ UoFQlGNiHJfJGcKC`L7XN2TL9YKGbJMgITlMZvJZsHZpFZnDZk\ BZh9Zf7Zc5Za6Wd6UgbUEWaEPhFLpDIoFGnGEnIBmJ9lL8lL7l\ MDjPIiROhUTfW_dYcb`daac`Za_RW`LMdPUhS`mVhqYop`vobh\ nVfWIlA7eE6_I5TM5NQ4HU4JPELKNNGWPBdR6mT2vTPgTkUXcZ\ `WcdOhhGml8rp1vi5tc8rYCpSFnMJlGMjAQh4Tg7Xf9`fBdeDh\ e2zmFleRZZbLS_MOYMLVMITMFQIBRMCSPDTTEUWFVZGWbHXeIq\ f_YhIWgJVfKTeLSdMQcNPbOHRVOaOPtCVkI`cNfWSlOYrGbz3h\ w8gtCfrHeoLdlQcjUbgZagZbebaceaaia_laYpaWsaUvaF5_J9\ WMCSQFOTJKXMG`TA_PC_MDZJF } frm:MandelbrotMix3a {; Jim Muth z=real(p5), c=fn1(pixel), a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=real(p3), h=imag(p3), j=real(p4), k=imag(p4), l=imag(p5)+100: z=(a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f))+(g*(z^h))+(j*(z^k))+c, |z| <=l } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
