fractals

The code here is used to generate fractals.

Functionality

render.py contains 2 functions for simple animation of escape time fractals. For more complex fractals animations, use generate_escape_time.

Packages

See environment.yml.

TODO

• Add docstrings
• GPU-accelerated computation (cupy?)
