BUTTERFLY CURVES
▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄
There is a beautiful class of graphic mathematical functions known as butter-
fly curves. An algorithm for plotting butterfly curves is given on page 19
of Clifford Pickover's book, COMPUTERS AND THE IMAGINATION. The accompanying
program is based on that algorithm.
The program requires a VGA graphics card and monitor. 286 or better CPU.
To run the program, simply type: butter. Enjoy the multi-colored "butterfly".
Press any key to exit the program and return to text mode.
