Dragon Curve

I want to show the dragon curve in five language soluitons:

1. Pascal
2. Python
3. Turtle
4. Delphi
5. Java Script

A dragon curve is any member of a family of self-similar fractal curves, which can be
approximated by recursive methods such as Lindenmayer systems as a procedure in
Pascal shows:

1 procedure Dragon(n,a,t: Integer; d,x,y: Double; var b: TBitmap);


2 var a1, a2: integer;
3 begin
4 if n <= 1 then begin
5 with b.Canvas do begin
6 Pen.Color:= random(p);
7 MoveTo(Trunc(x + 0.5), Trunc(y + 0.5));
8 LineTo(Trunc(x + d *_cos[a]+0.5),Trunc(y + d *_sin[a]+0.5));
9 exit;
10 end;
11 end;
12 d:= d * s;
13 a1:= (a - t) and 7;
14 a2:= (a + t) and 7;
15 dragon(n - 1, a1, 1, d, x, y, b);
16 dragon(n - 1, a2, -1, d, x + d *_cos[a1], y + d *_sin[a1], b);
17 end;

Recursively a right curling dragon is a right dragon followed by a left dragon, at 90-
degree angle. And a left dragon is a left followed by a right. The same you get also with
Python and Turtle in maXbox:

1 Const DRAGFUNC =
2 'def dragon(level=4, size=200, direction=45): '+LF+
3 ' if level: '+LF+
4 ' right(direction) '+LF+
5 ' dragon(level-1, size/1.41421356237, 45) '+LF+
6 ' left(direction * 2) '+LF+
7 ' dragon(level-1, size/1.41421356237, -45) '+LF+
8 ' right(direction) '+LF+
9 ' else: '+LF+
10 ' forward(size) ';
11
12 function PyCodeDragonTurtle(imgpath, aAPIKey: string): string;
13 begin
14 with TPythonEngine.Create(Nil) do begin
15 //pythonhome:= 'C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python
16 try
17 loadDLL;
18 autofinalize:= false;
19 ExecString('from turtle import right,left,forward,speed, exitonc
20 ExecStr(DRAGFUNC);
21 ExecStr('speed(0)');
22 //ExecStr('hideturtle()');
23 ExecStr('dragon(6)');
24 ExecStr('exitonclick()');
25 //result:= (EvalStr('r.json()')); *)
26 except
27 raiseError;
28 finally
29 Free;
30 end;
31 end;
32 end;

The dragon curve is probably most commonly thought of as the shape that is
generated from repeatedly folding a strip of paper in half.

Compact Code

This line we have to decompose in functional steps:

1 var
2 num, den: Extended;
3 den:= BinToInt('1'+value.Split(['.'])[1].Replace('1','0',[rfReplaceAl
 

So value.Split as an string object we do also have the function:

1 var tsa: TStringArray;


2 tsa:= flcStrSplit(value,'.');
3 sr:= stringreplace(tsa[1], '1','0',[rfReplaceAll])
4 den:= bintoint5('1'+sr);

And the whole function from:


https://sourceforge.net/projects/maxbox5/files/examples/1344_Functional_floattobin.pas/download
1 function BinToInt5(value: string): Int64;
2 var i,alen: integer; bit: Int64;
3 begin
4 Result:= 0;
5 alen:= Length(value);
6 for i:= alen downto 1 do begin
7 bit:= ord(value[i] = '1');
8 Result:= Result or (bit shl (alen - i));
9 end;
10 end;
11
12 function BinToFloat5(value: string): Extended;
13 var num, den: extended; tsa: TStringArray;
14 begin
15 //if value.IndexOf('.') = -1 then
16 if pos('.',value) = 0 then begin
17 result:= bintoint5(value);
18 exit; end;
19 num:= BinToInt5(StringReplace(value,'.', '', []));
20 //den:= BinToInt('1'+value.Split(['.'])[1].Replace('1','0',[rfRepl
21 tsa:= flcStrSplit(value,'.');
22 sr:= stringReplace(tsa[1],'1','0',[rfReplaceAll])
23 den:= bintoInt5('1'+sr);
24 Result:= num / den;

Death Star

Display a region that consists of a large sphere with part of a smaller sphere removed
from it as a result of geometric subtraction.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/maxbox5/files/examples/1345_death_star_graph12.pas/download

(This will basically produce a shape like a “death star“.)

bmp := DeathStar(apos, aneg, 1.2, 0.3, alight);

With JavaScript in maXbox editor:


softwareschule.ch/examples/deathstar.htm

png as use another jpg or bmp viewer

1 with TJpegImage.Create do begin


2 bmp.TransparentColor:= clwhite;
3 Assign(bmp);
4 //bmp.TransparentColor:= clblack;
5 SaveToFile(exepath+'examples\deathstarout.jpg');
6 sleep(500);
7 openfile(exepath+'examples\deathstarout.jpg');
8 bmp.Free;
9 Free;
10 end;

Get more than one function result as the example of a vector below:

1 type
2 TTVector = array of double;
3
4 procedure TNormalize(var v: TTVector);
5 var alen: double;
6 begin
7 alen:= Sqrt(v[0] * v[0] + v[1] * v[1] + v[2] * v[2]);
8 v[0]:= v[0] / alen;
9 v[1]:= v[1] / alen;
10 v[2]:= v[2] / alen;
11 end;

So we can pass a vector with call by reference:

1 alight:= [-50, 30, 50];


2 TNormalize(alight);
3 writeln(flots(alight[0]));
4 >>> -0.650944554904119

In Python we use a named tuple. Here the three values x,y,z of the namedtuple are
applied, in order, to the keyword arguments in the function. Those 3 arguments can be
addressed as positional arguments still, after all!

1 Execstr('Sphere = collections.namedtuple("Sphere", "cx cy cz r")');


2 Execstr('V3 = collections.namedtuple("V3", "x y z")');
3
4 def normalize(x, y, z,*args):
5 len = math.sqrt(x**2 + y**2 + z**2)
6 return V3(x / len, y / len, z / len)
7
8 execstr('light = normalize(-50, 30, 50, V3)');
9 println('tuples '+evalstr('light.x'))
10 >>> tuples -0.6509445549041194

I like the concept of sonification: translating data into sounds. There is a huge amount of contents in
the Internet about this technique and there are several packages in Delphi, Python, R, SonicPi to
help you to sonificate your data.

All you need is understanding how Mandelbrot Set is generated by the recursive equation. There are
hundreds of webpages where you can find it. I think there is no more to understand. Thanks for your
comment.
