Detailed Description

Mandelbrot image.

Date:

2000/12/10 20:09:08

Revision:

1.19

Thanks:

Thanks to C. Charles Law who developed this class.

vtkImageMandelbrotSource creates an unsigned char image of the Mandelbrot set. The values in the image are the number of iterations it takes for the magnitude of the value to get over 2. The equation repeated is z = z^2 + C (z and C are complex). Initial value of z is zero, and the real value of C is mapped onto the x axis, and the imaginary value of C is mapped onto the Y Axis. I was thinking of extending this source to generate Julia Sets (initial value of Z varies). This would be 4 possible parameters to vary, but there are no more 4d images :( The third dimension (z axis) is the imaginary value of the initial value.

Member Function Documentation

vtkImageMandelbrotSource* vtkImageMandelbrotSource::New (    )  [static]

Instantiate object with no start, end, or progress methods. Reimplemented from vtkImageSource.

virtual const char* vtkImageMandelbrotSource::GetClassName (    )  [virtual]

Return the class name as a string. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkImageSource.

int vtkImageMandelbrotSource::IsTypeOf (  const char *    type )  [static]

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkImageSource.

virtual int vtkImageMandelbrotSource::IsA (  const char *    type )  [virtual]

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkImageSource.

vtkImageMandelbrotSource* vtkImageMandelbrotSource::SafeDownCast (  vtkObject *    o )  [static]

Will cast the supplied object to vtkObject* is this is a safe operation (i.e., a safe downcast); otherwise NULL is returned. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkImageSource.

void vtkImageMandelbrotSource::PrintSelf (  ostream &    os, vtkIndent    indent )  [virtual]

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes. Reimplemented from vtkSource.
