- Description:
-
- !mandysbit is a floating point mandelbrot set generator. It uses the
- standard IEEE floating point instruction set so it will function with
- the floating point emulator but only shows its true potential with an
- FPA10 or FPA11. It uses an adaptive scanning algorithm that reduces
- the time taken to draw the set by a significant amount (~10 times
- faster than a raster scan algorithm).
