I came up with this idea after writing a program that mirrors an image vertically then mirrors the result horizontally... I then thought of the inkblot tests, and out came this...
The procedure names are fairly self-explanatory, but if you have any questions about this program, feel free to ask! Thoughts and comments are welcome. EDIT: Before you ask, I used the number 444444 after realizing that I needed to scale the window down from 900x900, so I used the same ratio to get a reasonable of dots... (A bit to the first person who can tell me what the original number of steps was in the 900x900 version ) |

Pretty neat stuff. However, there is a slightly easier way of doing this. Say you want just a vertical mirror. Well, divide your screen up into two halves (in your head at least), and draw your shape (or half thereof) on the one side. Next, take a Picture of that side using Pic.New(), and finally Pic.Draw it using Pic.Mirror(). Essentially, this will speed up your programme, and can be extended to four quadrants using Pic.Flip() as well. (Or more using a combination of Pic.Rotate() and the above). Keep up the good work though. |

Why do you use the procedure name 'brownian'? I thought Brownian was a straight line algorithm, not a random motion. |

brownian motion refers to the iratic motion of particles... not straight |

Yeah.. my bad. I confused w/ Bresenham. |
