Functions

func Attempt

func Attempt(z, c complex128, orbit *fractal.Orbit, frac *fractal.Fractal) int64

Attempt tries to find valid orbit from the points z and c and returns the length of the orbit inside the image space.

func FillHistograms

func FillHistograms(frac *fractal.Fractal, workers int) float64

FillHistograms creates a number of workers which finds orbits and stores their points in a histogram.

func IsLongOrbit

func IsLongOrbit(length int64, frac *fractal.Fractal) bool

IsLongOrbit returns true if the orbit is considered long.
