Hi,

I have created a programme to display a fractal tree in a 2D plot.

fractal tree.sm (7.93 KiB) downloaded 1203 time(s).
fractal tree.pdf (209.83 KiB) downloaded 751 time(s).

I would be interested to find out if there is a way to animate the plot process so that the fractal tree is drawn element by element, as each point is calculated.

Can anyone give me any pointers on how to do it?

If that is not possible, how would the animation be done after all the plot points are calculated?

Thank you

Gerard Bush

Like this ... in ½ points.

... hard to size the animation plot canvas.
Otherwise renders well ½ length ... greedy 1533 frames !
Search "Samples"... "Pattern" for lot more.
If you can't find and want more: please ask for.

Thank you Jean,

That is just what I was looking for.

To reduce the number of points, and reduce the calculation time the minimum length can be increased. For example, change 'if lenght > 0.25' in the tree function to 'if length > 1.0'. I guess this could even be defined as a variable.

Cheers,

Gerard

In the program Jean I added the growth of the tree
