-------- Use Turbo Mode! -------- [[ version 3.3D now available!! ]] [[ https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/181341231/ ]] Draws the Mandelbrot Set. You can Zoom in and out. There are five drawing modes to choose from. Change the [Set Zoom], [Set Depth] and [Draw Mode] settings, move (drag) the Magnifying Glass to where you would like to Zoom, and then click the triangular Start button to Draw the Mandelbrot Set. Click the square "Stop" button at any time during drawing to stop drawing. (You do not have to wait for the drawing to complete before zooming in again) The magnifying Glass can be dragged, or the 'Z' key can be pressed to move it to the Mouse Pointer. Also, the Right, Left, Up & Down arrow keys can be pressed to move the magnifying Glass one pixel in those directions. There are six [Draw Mode]s to choose from. TIPS: "Stamp" [Draw Mode] takes 2 to 3 times longer, because stamping a sprite takes longer than drawing by pen down. Set [Max Depth] to higher values when zooming in deeper and deeper. Pressing the 'M' key toggles (Hides/Shows) the Magnifying Glass. Pressing the 'S' key stops the drawing -- this is the same clicking the square "Stop" button. Pressing the 'C' key toggles (Hides/Shows) the Coordinates (r, i) and the Zoom amount of the drawn Mandelbrot.
-------- Use Turbo Mode! -------- Draws the Mandelbrot Set. You can Zoom in and out. There are five drawing modes to choose from. Clones are used to draw each row of the Mandelbrot Set. Up to 90 clones are used at a time. Currently, the highest [Zoomed] value that can be displayed is: 99,999,999, but this doesn't prevent you from zooming deeper than that. This will be fixed in a later version. The buttons and text readouts are all done with sprites. Information about the Mandelbrot Set can be found on the Web. Good examples: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_set http://www.math.utah.edu/~pa/math/mandelbrot/ Higher values of [Max Depth], and drawing large 'Black' areas will cause the rendering to take more time. The [Max Depth] value is the number of iterations that is tried before giving up and coloring a pixel black. I personally like "Stripes" [Draw Mode] for very high magnifications. Thanks to several Scratchers for the RGB (millions of colors) information. Thanks to the Scratchers of other Mandelbrot projects for inspiration.
