# Project Name
Fractol is a Fractal zoomer using the mlx library

---
## Improvements
### Features
#### auto zoom to current center.
#### Seperate Calculation from drawing so that color flowing can be controlled without recalculating
#### calulate and display fractal dimension?, count edge pixels at standard zoom?
#### option to display numbers of the numberplane?, if so how to shrink with zoom?
#### add an option to blend colors in a gradient
#### vector graphic fractols based on lines if possible?
### Faster Rendering
#### multithreading, give every Y line to the next thread.
#### If both numbers get very close to zero it is definitely in the mandelbrot (mess up precision?)
#### Check if the last number is very close to the current number every 10 iterations, if so break, it is in the mandelbrot (mess up precision?)
#### Use Symmetric properties to draw the first line and last line at the same time (only helpful with very low zoom values else it only adds conditions.)
#### Somehow stop calculating if a new calculation is next in line
#### Edge Detection?

## Bugs
**fractal getting out of aspect when wildly zooming in and out**\
**CY and CX value wrong when the doubles are negative**

---
## Usage
1. Simply clone or download the repository
2. Run `make` in the cloned directory
3. Start the server with `./fract-ol [FRACTAL] [ITERATIONS] [COLORSCHEME]`
