• Impliment parameter naming
• Impliment paramater image sizing
• Impliment parameter dot-count

Project Overview

Python Serpinski Triangle Generator utilizing randomly incrimented point placement within a pre-defined triangle determined by randomly selecting a vertex then translating half way towards that vertex from the current point. Begin with a 'random' point inside the triangle

Functionality

genPoint()

Utilizes a list of graphics.py points to generate pseudo-random points within a beginning triangle

dfc(pointx, pointy, originX, originY)

finds the distance between two points

rgbMap(val, limiter)

given a value ('val'), and the maximum for that value ('limiter'), will anchor/map that value to an RGB value (0-255)
