      Fractint and PWC Pars  & Formulas

I have been studying Paul W Calrsons various Pars & formulas.

There is a series of fractal images that divide up a single Fractint screen
into 4 screens. I'd like to figure out more how they work, and
de-constructuct them. How would I turn one of the par into 4 single separate
screen fractal images?

Here are the pars I'm playing with.

4juls_1
4juls_2
4juls_z1
4juls_z2
4juls_z3
4juls_z4
4mandels_1
4mandels_a
4mandels_b

Thanks,

TG

FOTD -- September 10, 2002 (Rating 6)
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
At first glance, today's image gives the impression of a scene
lying deep in the range of arbitrary precision math.  But the
impression is not accurate.  A glance at the parameter file will
reveal a magnitude of only 5x10^5, and arbitrary precision math
doesn't even work with 'type=formula' fractals.
The effect of great magnitude is created partly by the nature of
the image itself and partly because the parent fractal, which
resembles a lacework doughnut, is grossly enlarged.  The large
size of the parent fractal means that the scene in effect
actually lies somewhat deeper than the magnitude indicates.  The
name I gave the image, "Not at all Deep", was inspired by this
illusory impression of great magnitude.
The midget at the center of today's image lies in the remote
suburbs of a larger midget located in the northern part of the
bloated doughnut area of the parent fractal.  The formula, which
combines iterated portions of Z^(-2) and (1/Z), is quite simple,
but as I have often stated, in the world of fractals, simple
formulae sometimes create incredible images.
The rating of 6 appears about right for this image, which
impresses me as being just the slightest bit above average.
And as always, the 7-minute render time can be avoided by
downloading the completed GIF image from:

The fractal weather Monday here at Fractal Central was once
again perfect, with a temperature of 88F 31C and all other
things that go with weather perfection.  The intrepid house
cats, Thomas and Tippy, behaved perfectly as they passed the
afternoon in their lounge chairs on the porch, wishing only that
it had been a few degrees less warm.
I'll be perfectly happy only when I finish some work that now
lies in semi-disarray on the shelf beside me.  So until next
FOTD on Sep 12, take care, and see you then.
