I am going to need a little more hand holding on this Pyro.

I am all set with the nested loops and the dimensions of the field. I am working out how to do the colors. I am also including controls for rotating, panning and zooming.

I am OK with the conditions for ending the recursive calculation, and what to do with the results.

My problem is knowing how to do the recursive calculations...

Now let's look at the iteration code INSIDE the double loop above.
Then C(1) = C(0)^2 + C(0)
C(1) = a', b'i, where we have to calculate the new a' and b'
asq = a*a;
bsq = b*b;
a' = asq - bsq + a;
b' = 2*a*b + b;
CntIter = CntIter+1;
newCsquare = asq+bsq;
This part has me stumped.

Help me Pyrotex! Help!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
