julzzpwr A generalized Clifford Pickover fractal. z(0) = pixel z(n+1) = z(n)^z(n) + z(n)^m + c. Three parameters: real & imaginary parts of c, exponent m These types have been explored by Clifford A. Pickover, of the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research center. As implemented in xmfract, they are regular Mandelbrot/Julia set pairs that may be plotted with or without the {=@Biomorphs "biomorph"} option Pickover used to create organic-looking beasties (see below). These types are produced with formulas built from the functions z^z, z^n, sin(z), and e^z for complex z. Types with "power" or "pwr" in their name have an exponent value as a third parameter. For example, type=manzpower params=0/0/2 is our old friend the classical Mandelbrot, and type=manzpower params=0/0/4 is the Quartic Mandelbrot. Other values of the exponent give still other fractals. Since these WERE the original "biomorph" types, we should give an example. Try: type=manfn+zsqrd biomorph=0 corners=-8/8/-6/6 function=sin to see a big biomorph digesting little biomorphs!
