Fractal generating software

Fractal generating software

Fractal generating software is a computer program that generates images of fractals.

There are many fractal generating programs available, both free and commercial. Some of the most popular fractal generating programs include: [ [http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/Tried-Use_Counts.html Fractal Census Statistics] ]

*Fractint
*Ultrafractal
*XenoDream
*Tiera-Zon
*FractalExplorer
*Apophysis
*Sterling
*QuaSZ

No mathematical knowledge is required to use these programs; rather it is a matter of using graphics software to make fractal art.

Features provided by some or all of these programs include:
*Algorithm selection.
*Interactive image zoom.
*Choice of colour rendering.
*Use of 24-bit color.
*Saving images as JPEG files or other graphical file formats.
*Saving parameter files, allowing modification of a previously created image.
*Creating fractal movies from a sequence of images.
*Input of user's own formulas.
*Filters and other image manipulation effects.
