README
A few fractal-generating programs from a vintage book ([[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fractal-Programming-Roger-T-Stevens/dp/1558510370/][Fractal Programming in C]]).
1989-style C code was completely rewritten, and generates [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netpbm#File_formats][Netpbm]] files now.
The book is ok, but there's no particular reason I would recommend it over any other book.
* Compiling and running
Examples should easy to build on any Linux using a recent GCC and GNU Make:
#+begin_src shell-script
make
# -o for an output file
./mandelbrot -o output.ppm
see output.ppm
#+end_src
Some of the programs accept additional arguments but defaults should be fine too.
* A few examples
