Frankly, i have no business connection what soever with the owner of shaamtfractal.com (refer to as shaamtfractal). I would like to appeal to any person who knew the owner of the site to contact me personally or through this blog. I have being following shaamtfractal since i stumbled upon it 3 weeks ago from a search engine. It seems that the fractal pattern is quite unique in the sense that it doesn't match to any of the conventional formula known. I have failed to replicate it using any technique known (especially "Conflict Chamber 4", "Turning Point 2" and most of it in the gallery). I am looking from the academic's perspective and not from the artistic's perspective because to me color & shade could easily be manipulated using a wide range of graphic tools. Some of my academic collegue gave an opinion that the image could probably being produced from a high-end graphic software but they are amazed when i showed them the enlarge original's image (7680 x 5760) because it exposed the very fine detail of the unique pattern not found in others fractal pattern. "Medussa Belt" clearly show a grow-like pattern. I have tried in vain to get more details regarding the formula used from the site's owner but the reply is that it is an industrial secret. BTW, i am not trying to steal any formula from the site owner but just trying to get some clue regarding the formula & technique used to produce the said images and hoping that fractal theory could made a significant leap forward. regards, Fractal John Doe -Fractal Math for civilisation advancement. Hai,

You didn't do anything wrong. The CTP release broke some of this code. In addition to the move of the Complex type, some operators were eliminated. I've fixed the code so that it works, but haven't amended this post yet. Daniel:

However, when I sent the first few lines to the interpreter, I ran into some trouble on using complex types: "error FS0039: The type 'Complex' is not defined. A construct with this name was found in FSharp.PowerPack.dll, which contains some modules and types that were implicitly referenced in some previous versions of F#. You may need to add an explicit reference to this DLL in order to compile this code." I took the hint in the error and tried to reference that dll: #r @"C:\somePath\FSharp.PowerPack.dll" however, when i resent the lines, I got this: error FS0043: Method or object constructor 'op_DollarMultiply' not found. I imagine I've just bungled up my setup in some uninteresting way but would appreciate any tips you might have.
