go-mandelbrot

A version of the mandelbrot set in Go

###Installation

sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev
go get github.com/veandco/go-sdl2
go get github.com/tomcraven/go-mandelbrot

###Run

go run *.go [optional: theme-name]
e.g.
go run *.go fire

Where theme-name is one of the themes in colour.go, currently:

• full-spectrum
• fire
• leaf
• water
• beach (default)
• random

###Usage Arrow keys to move a round, 'z' and 'x' to zoom, 'a' and 's' in increase/decrease the level of detail

###Known issues When the zoom or detail level is high, there is a fair bit of screen tearing. The benefit of this is that overall on most machines, the image takes less time to render. I need to spend some time fiddling with using SDL2 properly and double buffering the screen.
