Generate and explore Mandelbrot, Julia, and Perpendicular Burning Ship fractals
Zoom and pan around the fractal using the mouse
Change the color palette
Adjust the maximum number of iterations for the fractal calculation
Installation
Clone this repository to your local machine
Run make in the root directory of the project to compile the program
Run ./fractol [fractal] to launch the program, where [fractal] is the name of the fractal you want to explore (e.g. ./fractol mandelbrot)
Usage
Use the following keys to control the program:
Arrow keys: pan the fractal
Scroll wheel: zoom in and out of the fractal
r: reset the view to the default position and zoom level
c: cycle through the available color palettes
p and m: increase and decrease the maximum number of iterations for the fractal calculation
