I am starting a project that will entail displaying and generating fractal landscapes on a Mac II. I am interested in both Macintosh specific code and the general algorithms for drawing fractals so any code would be appreciated. I have both Turbo and MPW Pascal. I also am familar enough with C to port C code. This is for a term project in Geometry. Any Help will be greatly appreciated, even just a few good references that have some algorithms explained.

There is a set of libraries for LightSpeed Pascal to enable use of the 68881 FP coprocessor. It included calls to generate fractals. Robert Woodhead also wrote a nice color fractal program that will cycle the color table to generate "psycadelic" displays. These should be available from most sources of Public Domain Mac Software. I have since deleted both to free space on my hard disk, so don't ask. (I got the LSP libraries from comp.binaries.mac. You might wanna ask in comp.sys.mac.programmer about doing this.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Alexander M.
