📜 About Project

One of the first graphical projects at 42 School, fract-ol generates beautiful fractals from the complex numbers of
an iterative mathematical construct. A fractal is a fragmented geometrical figure that infinitely repeats itself at
smaller scales. This project uses the school's graphical library, MiniLibX.

For detailed information, refer to the subject of this project.

🚀 TLDR: The fract-ol project is one of the three "beginner" graphical projects of the 
	 cursus. It teaches you about using graphic library, advanced math, and more.

📑 Fractals List

The program supports these fractal sets:

Name	Formula
Mandelbrot	$z_{n+1} = z_n^2 + c, z_0 = 0$
Julia	$z_{n+1} = z_n^2 + c, z_0 = c$

🎮 Controls

The program supports the following controls:

Key	Description
ESC	Close the program window
Mouse Scroll	Zoom in and out of the fractal
⬆️ ⬇️ ⬅️ ➡️	Change the viewpoint

👨‍💻 Usage

Requirements

The program is written in C language and thus needs the gcc compiler and some standard C libraries to run.

Instructions

1. Compiling the program

To compile the program, run:

$ git clone https://github.com/RogerioLS/Fractol-42sp/tree/main && cd Fractol-42sp && make

2. How to run the program

Run the executable too see the help message:

./fractol

Please enter: 
        "./fractol mandelbrot" or 
        "./fractol tricorn" or 
        "./fractol julia 0.285 +0" 
        "./fractol julia 0.285 +0.01" 
        "./fractol julia 0.45 +0.1428" 
        "./fractol julia -0.835 -0.232" 
        "./fractol julia −0.7269 +0.1889" 
        "./fractol julia 0.35 +0.35" 
        "./fractol julia 0.4 +0.4"

Note

Because of 42 School norm requirements:

• Each function can't have more than 25 lines of code.
• All variables are declared and aligned at the top of each function.
• Project should be created just with allowed functions otherwise it's cheating.
