Usage

---

Note that this project was tested on MacOS only. It may run on Linux with small adjustments to the Makefile, as described in hsmits and jvan-sni's 42 Docs.

Installing and Compiling Fract-ol

Clone the repository, including the embedded MiniLibX repository:

git clone https://github.com/pix3l-p33p3r/fract-ol.git && cd fract-ol 

You will now be in the correct directory for compilation. Compile with make. Fract-ol should now be ready!

Executing Fract-ol

At execution time, you must specify a fractal to display. You may also provide other optional parameters:

./fractol <number>

Types are :

• 1: Mandelbrot fractal
• 2: Julia fractal

• Requires additional parameters for imaginary and real constants:
  • <imaginary_constant>: Imaginary part of the Julia set constant
  • <real_constant>: Real part of the Julia set constant

• 3: 4th Mandelbrot (Burning Ship) fractal

For the Julia fractal set (and only this set), two additional parameters can be specified as calculation values. These represent a complex number that will change the shape of the Julia fractal. They must be fractional numbers between 2.0 and -2.0. For example:

./fractol 2 0.285 -0.01

Fract-ol Controls

While Fractol is running, the following set of controls are available:

Controls	Action
▲  ◄  ▼  ►	Move
scroll wheel	Zoom in and out (zoom follows the actual mouse position)
r ,  g ,  b	Change color scheme (r for red, g for green, b for blue)
esc  or close window	Quit fract-ol
