Back in high school, a friend gave me his book on fractals (thanks Damo!), and I spent hours and hours generating fractals using the bundled ‘fractint’ software. It didn’t matter that I was using a hand-me-down AT PC (everything was ok though, as this was the 8 MHz version!), watching the fractal generate line-by-line was fine by me.
Today I found the time and ambition to create for the Android platform a program that generates the Mandelbrot fractal. That’s all this program does (for now). It does it very slowly, with absolutely no bells and whistles. Say hi to “Frex” (“FRactal EXplorer”).
Mate, I’m sure it can’t be any slower than loading up Eclipse itself. Good work on the app though!
Hah – too true!
Wow.. I’d forgotten that I even owned that let alone lent it to you…. 🙂
That book was (still is) bloody awesome.
