If I would ever be able to understand Mandelbrot, this may be the chance. The script seems simple as the formula itself, but it is hard to understand what it is doing...
That sounds really odd. Are you behind a firewall? Are you using a different computer when you use Scratch? You could ask in the forums, someone who knows how the share code works might be able to offer more insight. Someone else may have even had the same problem.
It's definitely a powerful language, though a little slow. I think the strengths are drawing animated sprites, but it has the potential to teach children about object oriented programming in an easy to understand manner, as well.
Wow! Two comments from me here:
(1) I remember writing a Mandelbrot fractal program in BASIC and that was a nightmare. This is a brilliant implementation using Scratch.
(2) Like all your programs, this one puts to rest any suggestion that Scratch is limited to just simple animations. I agree with Canthiar - even your non-working programs would be useful for anyone wanting to explore more complex ideas. Remember the fundamental principle behind Logo .... you learn by making mistakes and finding the solution.
all my projects arent shared cause most of them dont work.
Download this project!
Download the one sprite and one script of "Mandelbrot" and open it in Scratch
Project Notes
This is my favorite program to test out new programming languages.
The program runs a little slow, but it was more of a learning experience for me to see how Scratch works.

how do you people animate your little photos?
Is this actually doing something? wow.
I found a better site to explain....http://users.erols.com/ziring/mandel.html#what-mandel I actually mostly get it now!!!!!!!
just making a guess, but are you older than 22? if so, then I would assume that you are a math major.
Maybe He/she (dunno which, i wish i knew :(...) is at leats in his/her teens...
Could you please explain to me very specifically how this program is able to form a mandlebrot? i have been unable to find a good formula :(
There's a very good Wikipedia article that describes how it the mandelbrot fractal is calculated http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_fractal">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_fractal
(view all replies)Which word?
Mandelbrot And you seem to want to be a mathematician! I'm only 12 so I can't fully understand this stuff...
woah what is that word?
it takes too long, i get bored, soz...
What are you having problems with?
Dude Go On My Project And Do Us A Fovour Please HELP ME:(
That is very strange.
um no im not behind a firewall so i wonder what the problem is.
yeah my friend nathan(f)aka jamesbond13 couldnt change his picture becuase it said the same thing so after school he canged it in a classroom.

when i said they dont work i ment it says Failed:address not found when i click share.

What's wrong with them? Have you had somebody look at them? You could share a few purely for suggestions on how to fix them.
