Fractals

Fractals is a program to create images of fractals. Until this stage, the ones available are the julia and mandelbrot fractals. There is a parameter available to create animated fractals like ones given below.

Requirements:

matplotlib
numpy

Here are some examples:

Julia set for c = 1 - golden ratio:

fractal(fractal_type='julia', c=complex(-0.64, 0), size='800x450')

Julia set for c = 0.285 - 0.01i

fractal(fractal_type='julia', c=complex(0.285, -0.01), size='800x450')

Animated version

fractal(n_iter=100, fractal_type='julia', c=complex(0.285, -0.01), size='800x450', animated=True)

#Output
************************ Fractal generator ************************

Plotting the Mandelbrot set:

fractal(fractal_type='mandelbrot', cmap='binary_r', size='800x450', converging_color=[1, 1, 1])

#Output
************************ Fractal generator ************************
Generating fractal...

Number of iterations: 130
Elapsed time: 00:05 s
*******************************************************************

Animated version:

fractal(n_iter=50, fractal_type='mandelbrot', cmap='binary', animated=True)

#Output
************************ Fractal generator ************************
Generating fractal...

Number of iterations: 50
Elapsed time: 00:13 s
