To clone and run this application, you'll need Git and a gcc compiler installed on your computer. Also you need miniLibX graphics library which to my knowledge doesn't work on windows. This has been tested only on MacOs and linux. Run the following commands on the command line:
# Clone this repository
$ git clone https://github.com/PietarTheWise/fractol.git
# Build the program by typing:
$ make
# in command line
#then run:
$ ./fractol
#note: the program will give you options on the command line, so for instance if you want mandlebrot set type:
$ ./fractol 'mandlebrot set'
This is a project from the 42 school, which is a school that utilizes peer to peer learning. We're only given a document that gives us the details of the assignment, therefore each implementation is unique. Each assignment is tested for crashes and other bugs thoroughly by other peers. Apart from some exceptions, existing libraries are banned, these projects utilize our self made version of libc called libft.
