I have come up with an algorithm that creates the self-squared fractal
dragon that appears on the cover of Mandlebrot's book, Fractal Geometry
of Nature. It is a simple algorithm. However, if I interpret his ideas
on the segment colors correctly, that part is not so simple. In following
his idea, I have come up with a scheme that seems to work but involves
some complicated numerical analysis. Like the Mandlebrot set, this set
is extremely computationally intensive.
Has anybody out there tried this out? And if so, is there a MUCH
SIMPLER method for determining the segment colors?
