A good starting book for learning fractal programming

Question

What is a good book for learning fractal programming? I am a programmer, I look at a book that will be more algorithmic than mathematical (at least not in the initial chapters). Must teach me the basics of fractals and the different ways to generate them.

Answer 1

You can find an interesting sheep project. This is an open source project, a distributed software project that generates fractal animations.

Scot Drave's original work on the electric sheep algorithm is a good introduction to the algorithm used and mainly focuses on the algorithmic aspect of creating a fractal image: http://flam3.com/flame.pdf
