The Fractal Science Kit is a fractal generator that gives you the opportunity to explore and generate countless types of images based on fractals.
It handles the common processing steps required to generate a fractal image so that you can concentrate on the fun part; developing the fractal formulas/equations, complex transformations, and coloring schemes that define the fractal.
This is not to say that you must write code to use the Fractal Science Kit. On the contrary, hundreds of properties are available and most of these provide options that yield countless variations.
A fractal image is the result of combining an equation with data collection programs, complex transformations, and color controllers (the instructions that map the data to colors).
By choosing different combinations of these programs/options, you can generate more fractal images than you could ever hope to view in your lifetime without ever writing a single line of code.
