Does anyone have programs that produce fractal images on an IBM-PC? I would prefer C sourcecode, but will take anything that I can get. Thanks. Steve Turpin ihlpm!stevet

In response to you question, my best suggestion is Fractint v11.0 available via ftp from simtel20.arpa, vega.hut.fi, numerous other sites, and compuserve. The source code is distributed and its probably the fastest (undoubtedly) fractal program for the PC out there.

Thanks. > > Steve Turpin > ihlpm!stevet There is a wonderful program called FRACTINT available on CompuServe in the COMART forum and also SIMTEL20 via anonymous FTP. The current version (v.11.0) can display 32 different fractal types on almost any IBM compatiable machine with almost any video setup (Herc, CGA, EGA, MCGA, VGA, Super VGA) it is written mostly in C by the Stone Soup Group (headed by Bert Tyler) You can mapiulate and change the images, zoom in or out, color cycle the pallett and much more .. its a must get for serious fractal observers. some of the types of fractals supported, Mandelbrot and Julia sets (with MANY variations) Serpiniski Barnsley fractals The Lorenz Attractor Plamsa Clouds Newton Fractals etc .. ========================================================================== Jim Sonnenmeier !
