The basic idea...

"The basic idea behind open source is very simple. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute, and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves. People improve it, people adapt it, people fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing...
...The Open Source pages exist to make this case to the commercial world."    - Introduction to Open Source - www.opensource.org

* Mandelbrot Map 2

market download Mandelbrot Map 2 is a simple Mandelbrot fractal viewer for Android that acts as an "infinite map". Simply use it like Google Maps, with panning and zooming. It also offers options to save images and set as wallpaper.

Note: this was designed to be just a simple demo app. There are other more fanciful or faster fractal renderers on Market.

Want to fix the OOM bug or add palette cycling? Checkout the web site for the source, it's GPL, gimme a patch!

Update: Fly Mode (in menu>more).
- v12 now uses RenderScript on Honeycomb, if available. This is experimental and may crash.
- v13 supports Honeycomb tablet UI. Switch to double for deeper zoom.
