Julia-mandel

Code for generating Mandelbrot Sets, Julia Sets and tweeting them.

To simply make an Julia Set, compile Julia.c and run “a.out c_real c_imaginary”.

To tweet a Julia set image, make sure that tweet.py and Julia.py are in the same folder. Make a Twitter Application and edit the required fields in tweet.py to link it to your account. Then run tweet.py. Requires PILLOW, tweepy.

Tweet

To tweet a random julia set, you need to first make an account with https://developer.twitter.com and get your API keys. Then, put them into a file (say keys) with the following four lines:

<CONSUMER_KEY>
<CONSUMER_SECRET>
<ACCESS_KEY>
<ACCESS_SECRET>

Then call tweet.py with this as an argument.

python3 tweet.py keys

This will make and tweet the generated Julia image.

Nix

This project is packaged as a nix flake. If you use flakes, you can do the following:

nix run github:jeslie0/julia-mandel#juliac <z_real> <z_im> # Generates the julia set for the given complex number
nix run github:jeslie0/julia-mandel#tweet <key_file> # Generates and tweets a Julia Set
