Fractal Atlas

Nova, a new fractal, a Places sheet, shapes in new colors, and a chaos game to watch. - Nova, a new fractal: Newton's method for z³ − 1 with a constant added, a swooping crescent with a glowing core and a frilly edge, about 37,000 times deep, with nine named places. - A Places sheet lists all 107 named places, grouped by fractal, each with a small picture, how deep it is and a Dive button that flies you there. Open it from the Places row in the fractal picker or from Browse places in the info card. - Watch the chaos game on the fern, Sierpinski triangle, Lévy C curve and Vicsek fractal: tap Play and a dot hops from point to point, each jump in the color of the rule it used, faster and faster until the picture builds up. - The eleven pattern shapes got a makeover: a soft dark-blue backdrop, dots colored by the piece of the shape they belong to, curves colored along their length, a Koch snowflake shaded generation by generation, a Pythagoras tree with a wooden trunk, and a Hexaflake that keeps your color. Three new colors: Blue, Teal and Coral. - The Hilbert, Gosper and arrowhead curves add detail as you zoom in, like the dragon, and the Dragon stays centered as you change its depth. - Each shape's info card now says in two short lines how it is built and its dimension, with who found it and when where that is known. - Four toolbar icons are redrawn to say what they do: the fractal picker, Box zoom, Dual view and Back.
