# Fractol
Fractol is a program developed for my learning course at 42 school for the exploration of Fractals.
Several options are available (see [Keyboard shortcuts](https://github.com/BenjaminSouchet/Fractol#keyboard-shortcuts) or/and [Mouse controls](https://github.com/BenjaminSouchet/Fractol#mouse-controls) sections for more infos) :
* Zoom and unzoom
* Change the number of iterations
* Move the current fractal
* Rotate by step of 90°
* Edit the display gradient
* Navigate between the three fractals
* Edit the shape of the fractal with the position of the mouse (only available with the fractal Julia)
## Install & launch
```bash
git clone https://github.com/BenjaminSouchet/Fractol ~/Fractol
cd ~/Fractol && ./fractol Julia
```
You have to launch the program with a parameter. This is the name of the fractal you would like to open at the execution of the program. This parameter as to be the name of a valid fractal (Julia, Mandelbrot or Tricorn).
Example :
Open the Mandelbrot fractal ⇣
```bash
./fractol Mandelbrot
```
