Hey all Our last project (and worth the most marks) in the comp-programming course is to create a c++ Fractal program using visual studio. I believe they were a mandlebot fractal, and a fractal of our choice. Does anyone have any links to tutorials/help on creating one visual c++ fractals? BTW: Fractals make good desktop backgrounds Ryan
Standard reply: "We're not here to do your homework for you." :lol: Are you looking for fractal generation algorithms or information on drawing to a Visual C++ form?
I'm looking for mainly the generation algorithms, or even just info on visual c++ fractals, I've covered chaos game before, but nothing else, so really I'm looking for some good info on them Ryan
Don't know about C, but here is a mandlebrot generator in QBASIC. Read up on Mandlebrots, they aren't that hard to figure out. SCREEN 13 CLS a% = 0 FOR p = 0 TO 63 STEP 2 c = 63 - p PALETTE a%, 63 + 256 * p PALETTE a% + 32, c + 63 * 256 PALETTE a% + 64, 256 * 63 + p * 65536 PALETTE a% + 96, c * 256 + 63 * 65536 PALETTE a% + 128, p + 65536 * 63 PALETTE a% + 160, c * 65536 + 63 a% = a% + 1 NEXT PALETTE 193, 0 sx% = 320 sy% = 200 v = 2 xm = 2 ym = 2 xs = -2 ys = -2 FOR y% = 0 TO sy% FOR x% = 0 TO sx% p = xs + x% * (xm - xs) / sx% q = ys + y% * (ym - ys) / sy% i% = 0 cx = 0 cy = 0 DO xn = (cx * cx) - (cy * cy) + p yn = (2 * cx * cy) + q r = (xn * xn) + (yn * yn) IF r > v ^ 2 OR i% > 192 THEN EXIT DO i% = i% + 1 cx = xn cy = yn LOOP PSET (x%, y%), i% NEXT NEXT DO WHILE INKEY$ = "" LOOP
