Overview
--------------------------------------------
* Name: fractal_creator
* Description:
Fractal Creator. This Demo program is written in C++.
This project creates a bitmap file and
then applies two magnification functions
to a sector of that file. The bitmap is a graphic image.
The graphic image is a fractal created by the Mandelbrot Set.
A fractal in mathematics is an abstract object used to describe
and simulate naturally occurring objects. Fractals can also be nearly the
same at different levels. For Linux based OS.
