Description - this.periodicity

Name: this.periodicity

Type: Int

Context: Iteration formula only

Description:

The default value for periodicity is specified by this statement.

The following values are possible:

  • 0 ==> Off

  • 1 ==> Rigid

  • 2 ==> Quite Rigid

  • 3 ==> Normal (default)

  • 4 ==> Soft

  • 5 ==> Very Soft

If the user assigns a formula to an Escapetime fractal, then this fractal gets that default number of iterations assigned.

Example:

this.periodicity=4;
