Guest AkaMan Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 A few weeks ago I accidentally stumbled on a site with images of fractals. I have heard about those things before, but the images interested me so much that I decided I should try to create them personally. Well, Can anyone help me? Where should I start from? Links, books or any other kind of information on fractals is appreciated. Especially I am good at MATLAB and have a good (but instinctive) understanding of fractals and chaos theory. I know what the story is wholly about. But I am still unable to write few lines of code to generate them myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodhound Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 there are various software to create fractals. http://www.ultrafractal.com/showcase.html this is a "arty" software to create fractals. here are tons of exampls of fractals http://mathworld.wolfram.com/topics/Fractals.html and definition of fractal http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Fractal.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Fractals are pretty beautiful things. If you have a hunt around here, I coded a mandelbrot set generator somewhere, but beware: it's not very user friendly and there's quite a few bugs in it On the upside, it's free, and will generate huge images if you ask it to. I will get around to updating it one of these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auk Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I found a fractal program you can download on this site. Its a visual and simple interface i think youll like it. http://www.invisiblegold.com/math/downloads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAS Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 You can use newton's root finding equation to generate a fractol. You can assign color shades depending on the convergence or the divergence of the approximated root. I think this fractol should be simple to generate.
