My best work, done with about three lines of code from me includes about fifteen thousand lines of code from various contributors mentioned on the fractint.exe front page (Jason Osuch writing code, last time I checked). All I did was fill out a palette, mechanically, in the case of what is on [[chaos theory]]. (The one that resembles a side view of a mushroom, because it's only an iterations view, is not my best. {I didn't state the whole method in complex numbers mapped to the screen}). By best, I mean stuff that's easy to appreciate, like grayscales.

The best definition of fractal is "Simple rules with complex graphic and auditory results." Had I done it from scratch, then we might now be going beyond Command Line Interfaces and the internet would still be largely government-sponsored facilities (late 80s).

Worms out of the can expand, so you will need a bigger can. Cans always have an expiry date.
