PANOMAND

Post by jdebord »

PANOMAND is an open source software for plotting Mandelbrot and Julia sets. It is written in two BASIC dialects: PANORAMIC and FreeBASIC. At this time, the functions implemented are the power functions (z^p + c, with p integer or real) and the combination (1 - t) * z^p + t * z^q + c

PANOMAND is available at:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/panolib ... nomand.zip

You will need the PANORAMIC editor to run the programs:

Hello jdebord.
Your link to the Panoramic editor gives me a page I find difficult to access the Panoramic editor from.
That is, I cannot navigate my way to it.

Perhaps your Back2BASIC page would be easier:

Hello dodicat,

Sorry ! I had copied an old address ! The address of the website is:

http://panoramic-language.pagesperso-orange.fr/

Moreover, to test the programs you must get the latest (development) version of the Panoramic editor, which can be found here:

A tutorial based on this program is being published in the webzine "Panoramic le mag".

The first chapter is here:

http://panoramiclemag.magix.net/public/EN018.htm

The 2nd chapter is scheduled for November 9.

Chapters 1 and 2 are mainly updated versions of my previous tutorial published in Back2Basics (but with more pictures). More original material will be presented in the other chapters.

jdebord,

This link: "http://panoramiclemag.magix.net/public/EN018.htm" sends me to, "A new website is under construction here" - no articles are accessible to me there.

Sorry for the inconvenience. The web site of the magazine is being updated and the previous link is no longer valid !

You have to go to the website :

http://panoramiclemag.magix.net/public/ ... ticles.htm

then select the option "Article in English" in the menu at left.

Not very easy..., so I have placed the first 2 chapters on DropBox :

https://www.dropbox.com/s/sbojnaadzux07 ... debord.pdf

Also on DropBox :

- an archive of the old site "Mandelbrot Dazibao" which has disappeared from the web :

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ceigj2cc0gjl4h2/Dazibao.zip

- a scan of 5 issues of the magazine "Amygdala" which was published in the 80-90's :

Hi, Jean
Thanks for making available the Mandelbrot Dazibao, it was a fantastic resource!

A finding of mine: Marc Jaouen has set up a new site, not much in it yet, just a video about fractals and an e-mail address for contact.
http://mandelbrot-dazibao.com/

I wished to try your mandelbrot viewer but no luck, the Panoramic executable won't run, perhaps it does'nt like Win7 64?
I have installed the last version Panoramic, and if I try to compile your bas file but it gives me an error like "Object number out of range in line 67". Curiously I can't run their own bouncing balls demo. Well, as we all have experienced that sort of thing happens with new programming environments being developed fast ;)

I'm not doing much in FB nowadays.. a lot of script programming (vba and vbs) at the job is enough for me!

How's the other hobby we share? A pity Eric's forum did'nt last, Eric was to picky to run it....You can see see my last model here http://www.nzmeccano.com/image-69792

Hello Antoni! Glad to see you again!

Did you try the version of the Panoramic editor from this link :

http://panoramic-language.pagesperso-or ... EDITOR.zip

It should work, at least on a 32-bit system. For 64-bit I am not sure. If you explain your problem in more detail I could report it on the french Panoramic forum. You can also subscribe to the forum if you wish. BTW, there is a strong discussion on robotics at this time. Perhaps a link to our other hobby ?

New version 1.5
--------------------

* New formula : z^p + c / z^q + k

* The main programs are supplied as executables, in addition to the source code. So, you don't need to install PANORAMIC, unless you want to modifiy the programs. The executables have been tested on a 32-bit system. I have not verified if they run on a 64-bit system.

* The documentation has been expanded

English version :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/panolib ... nomand.zip

French version :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/panolib ... and_fr.zip

New version 1.6
------------------

* 3 new formulas :

z^k + c with k complex
c[(z + k)^p + 1 / (z + k)^q] with k complex and (p,q) integers
[c(z^p - z^q) - 1]^r with (p,q,r) integers

* About 200 example files

* Updated documentation

* Supplementary tutorial available here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/v9l159icpe1fuij/tutorial.pdf

The program has been tested with 32-bit Windows. I don't know if it works in 64-bits.

Thank you D. J. Peters :)

BTW, the GUI is written in Panoramic, which means that the software is only available for Windows. I have just begun to study FLTK and I hope to be able to write a version of the program using this library.
