Pascal

Handheld Fractal Generator

Descended from work I did in Pascal for PCs in 1992, this version compiles for Palm OS.
Also download my library of Pascal routines, utilities and game programs.

Program Fractal;

{$ApplName Fractal}
{$R *.bin}

Uses Window, Form, Menu, Rect, Crt, Event, SysEvent, SystemMgr, HSUtils;

Const
  Color = 1;
  NumIts = 30000;
  MaxColor = 65000;
  MaxLines = 4;
  MaxFractal = 5;
  DevXMax = 160;
  DevYMax = 160;
  MenuAbout = 1001;
  AlertAbout  = 1022;
  MenuMain  = 1000;

Type
  String2 = String[2];
  FractalSetRecord =
    Array [ 1 .. MaxLines ] of Record  A, B, C, D, E, F, P : Real;  End;
  WindowRecord =
    Record  X1, Y1, X2, Y2 : Real;  End;
  FractalDataRecord =
    Record
      Lines : Byte;
      Name : String[ 80 ];
      W : WindowRecord;
      FR : FractalSetRecord;
    End;

Var
  FractalData : FractalDataRecord;
  Result, PrevY : Integer;
  WorldX1, WorldY1, WorldX2, WorldY2, WorldXFactor, WorldYFactor : Real;
  FrcX, FrcY : Real;
  FractalNum, PrevFractalNum : Byte;
  CD : Array [ 1 .. MaxFractal ] of FractalDataRecord;
