Overview
This example implement chaos game in LabVIEW.
Description
This program uses the Chaos Game method with various polygons to make fractals. The image is created by plotting a point a certain fraction of the distance between the current point and a randomly selected vertices. A triangle with the ratio set to .5 will create the Sierpinski Triangle seen in the image below. Other configurations that make interesting fractals are (N=3,R=2/3), (N=5,R=5/8), and (N=6,R=2/3). Experiment with the program to find a slew of other beautiful fractals and images.
Requirements
- LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)
