Assignment

Fractals

Create your own fractal drawing. Anything goes, but keep in mind the idea is to display your ability to write generative-recursive functions (and understand how to generate fractal drawings/images).

Some ideas:

Try modifying the line-changing algorithm used to draw Koch lines and see if you can't find something interesting. Add some color!


Create new kinds of trees, shrubs, whatever... Create a fractal scene.


Check out the Dragon Curve (google for "fractal dragon").

 

We discussed recursive fractals, there is another class of fractal that are based on iterative function evaluation - check out any of the 6.02x1023 sites that have information about Mandelbrot Fractals, or Julia Set Fractals.
